This is really nice! I'm curious, for drone shots like this, do you hike to the peak and fly it from there, or send it up from the trail somewhere? I'm getting a drone soon and am enamored by photos like this.

Just depends on the situation and the shot I’m going for. This was taken above a nearby road/trail.

I don't even have a drone yet I'm just trying to figure out how people take good photos with them lol.

Which organization should I look to for Camel's Hump drone regulations? Is that a state parks thing, or FAA thing? I see it as "controlled airspace" on the app, but there's an option to request authorization.

I don’t believe there are state park drone restrictions in Vermont, but I do recommend following common courtesy and doing all you can not to annoy others enjoying nature!

Do be aware that if you wish to fly over in New York in the Adirondacks, the regulations are a bit more complex. I wrote a blog post outlining what you need to know about drone flight rules in the Adirondacks.
