Comment from SomeoneElse
Hello,
You've added a "landuse=forest" tag to http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/1447414#map=15/47.9626/-120.2074 - is that really correct? The relation is "Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest" i.e. it's a protected area - a "National Forest" in US terms, but that doesn't necessarily imply landuse=forest in OSM. -
Comment from Carnildo
I don't think it does. Like most national forests, Okanogan-Wenatchee is used for a mix of logging, ranching, mining, hunting, and other things. There are dedicated recreation areas and dedicated wilderness areas, and areas that are de-facto one or the other (generally due to inaccessibility), and it's not all forest.
Even as vague as the meaning of "landuse=forest" is, it doesn't make sense to apply it to the whole of a national forest.
