Former ranger here. Yes the rangers will enforce the regulations on max persons on a campsite. It's also dependent upon the park or forest you plan on camping at. Also if you get loud or have booze, we can remove you from the campsite

Did you like walk around and head count every site tho? Or just pay attention to the ones where folks are being obnoxious. Generally curious, not being snarky.

It depends on the site and park. Usually when walking and checking on the sites, most rangers are looking for sites with more adults than kids. Generally as long as you're not being loud or disturbing other sites, most rangers will generally leave you be. Biggest problems we had was booze which caused the most issues of people being loud and lead to their being ejected and cited.

So, this would be like 2 adults and 6 kids, oldest being a young teen. No booze and generally early bedtime. Probably have 2 tents which I think is permitted (please correct me if wrong).

Are they all from the same family? In all honesty, you will probably be fine as long as you're not loud.
