As a flat lander, so this is a mountain of fat?

Pretty sure this was taken from the north side, which is gives the least impressive views compared to south, west and east. If you google Camel's Hump you'll see what it 'usually' looks like haha.

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.

Please don't fly a drone off of camels hump. You aren't supposed to and its just annoying.

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.

Nicely done, thanks for posting! VT parks do not prohibit drones at all :-)

Flying a drone in a no drone zone 😡

I don’t believe that is the case (and I’ve done a fair bit of research into local drone regulations!) but if you can point me in the direction of the relevant restriction/regulation, I’m happy to take my post down!
