Does any know exactly what "hard sided" means?

I remember campgrounds in Yellowstone the had that
restriction many years ago.  I searched their website
and can only find

I can see arguing that a Westy is hard sided and I can
see a claim that it is not if the top is popped.  Does
any know what a ranger would argue?  Or a bear?  ;-)

Anyone with real knowledge or experience?
