Quiet Hours
What kind of hours do you like? I would like to see graduated hours. 10:00 PM all electronic entertainment and/or musical instruments off. 10:00 to 1:00, quiet conversation ok. 1:00 to 6:00...

noise from conversation does not carry beyond the sites I frequent
So you think. You wouldn't know because you are the one having the conversation. Voices, especially at certain pitches, carry VERY far an otherwise quiet campground, unless one speaks in not much more than a whisper. Outbursts of laughter have a tendency to be much louder than regular conversation and can be very startling to some.
11-7 for quiet hours suits me fine. That does, however, include the dousing of campfires. By the time people settle in and the "slamming door choir" stops it's usually later. However, I will say very few of the campgrounds I go to often (or used to) had quiet hours issues as they enforced them.
