The first video my son (18) made with his drone (DJI Phantom) + GoPro. The video was GoPro Video of the Day.
Video was shot before the drone ban in the NP.

..drone ban in the NP.

Great video!

There might be a ban upon the Great Unwashed in using drones in places such as this, but there is no such thing as a ban. With permission, film companies, advertising companies etc do it all the time. I bet for a million dollars any NP would agree to a one-day permit.

Your son could do worse than approach some of film and advertising companies with his skills.

Thanks Sombeech and Rob. @Rob, that's correct. Last January we were back in Arches NP and a Ranger told us that they just gave permission to a film company for about 150.000 dollars to make a commercial in the park...
Actually there is only a ban for people like us who just want to capture all that beauty without benefit purposes...
