National Forests were initially created to be logged sustainably.

"No national forest shall be established, except to improve and protect the forest within the boundaries, or for the purpose of securing favorable conditions of water flows, and to furnish a continuous supply of timber for the use and necessities of citizens of the United States…" -- Organic Administration Act of 1897.

Good logging is beneficial to the forest and wildlife, improves watersheds and fisheries, increases biodiversity, and improves the resiliency of the forest to catastrophic disturbance.

Except clear-cut logging, mining and oil extraction violates the multi use principles. I don't think RVers will want or be permitted to do camping in their concessions.

Again, Big Bear National Forest approach of low impact, local small operations of selective harvesting can co-exists with camping and does not degrade the watersheds.
