Yep, that's what it means to "turtle". As far as I know, there are very few places that require turtling and often it's just during a period of problem or heavy bear activity in the area.
Most of my camping is done in bear territory - in campgrounds with bear boxes, etc. So far, in over 5 years, I have not seen a bear yet. There was one who showed up in the campground - someone had left an empty juice box on the picnic table - but it was scared off quickly. I can say that my initial concerns (didn't help to watch Night of the Grizzlies a couple days before my first solo camping trip) have minimized into "common sense" behavior.

The forest is allowing hard-sided vehicles made of metal or strong composite plastic to be used at the three campgrounds. Truck-box campers that have a 4-foot high hard side, in addition to a raised upper section, are permissible, but tents and pop-up campers are excluded, as is camping without a shelter.
