Large open field south of 5k stage?

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if that large open area on the east side of the gravel road just south of the 5k staging area is illegal to use? My son has a little KTM 50 electric bike and that looks like a safe spot for him to putt around in while I kick back in a lawn chair.
The reason I ask is that I do see truck, quad tracks up on the hill there but I had a run-in with FWO last week. Every other officer I've dealt with in the past has been a complete beauty. They have a great group of people working out there, except this one young English fellow. He was a complete jerk from the first thing he said to me. He told me that the area I was staged at (not the area I am inquiring about here) was illegal because: "Do you see any gravel or cleared parking lot that would lead you to believe you could park here??" (Fair enough, I really didn't know) Then I pointed out that the common staging areas at Fisher West and Fisher East didn't follow his logic either. He told me those were also illegal? In any case, I know for a fact he didn't give the 30 guys at 5k warnings and was singling me out because I was the only one around.
Point being, I want to take my son to that large open field to ride his new bike but I don't want to have to deal with that Officer again.
