A person so furnishing, renting or leasing a pack or saddle horse or other equipment shall not be considered an "outfitter" or "guide" if, on an incidental basis, they accompany a hunter, not to include extended camping, for the purpose of maintaining the safety and well-being of the livestock used to retrieve harvested big game; or
