Yellowstone N.P.
I've been all over the Park many times! Has anybody ever rented a helicopter to fly over Yellowstone? There's a lot of places that I would like to still see but, I'm not healthy enough to hike, If so ...

Apparently, it is not formally restricted airspace, like the area around the White House, but I would strongly suspect that someone violating that suggestion would get a visit from the appropriate authorities. You aren't going to see much from 2000 feet and I doubt you are going to find many pilots who are willing to risk flying lower.NCWriter wrote:
There are helicopter tours, sort of, if you want the really big picture from on high. According to one tour operator, the NPS and FAA do not allow low altitude scenic tours by air, so the closest they can go is 2,000 feet above the ground.
Got a reference for that?? there is nothing on the local sectional saying any thing like that.
