Looks like a pretty good flow, when was that filmed?

Sweet location. Excellent smooth flying. Enjoyed it.
Wish you could have captured it directly also, but understand the mist concerns. How was the wind?
The video and the scene was beautiful only to be made unwatchable by the horrendous music track. I had to turn it off.

Also, It needs some color correction. The scene was about 1 stop or so over-exposed. Take it into color correction mode and slide the exposure down, and increase the contrast a bit if you can.
Tyler Bradt kayaked over that waterfall with just minor injuries.

Can you imagine the water flow in that thing when it was carved around 12,000 years ago by the catastrophic draining of Glacial Lake Missoula?It was the last part of June. Huge in person. The falls is like 200’ and it doesn’t start till about 100’ down.
Hello, I never tire of drone shots of the falls. Yet, I remember seeing NO DRONE signs the past three trips to the falls. Yet, as a somewhat new drone pilot I want to shoot it next time I am in that area. I assume you could fly in from a short ways away, as they don't control the airspace. Or making sure there are no official vehicles before launching it from the parking area. Any creative suggestions?
I would try the stealth approach...e.g.: get there at sunrise when the parking lot is empty, get in and out as fast as possible.Hello, I never tire of drone shots of the falls.

That is what I thought. On the other hand, being a small park, you could easily fly in and out fairly easily, one would think. Or as others mentioned, keep you distance from the falls themselves, as the MA2 is whisper quite from a couple hundred feet or more away. Or just shoot it using a conventional camera, like I have on plenty of occasions. What I don't see myself doing to applying for a permit, as I have heard they need a detailed plan and will have someone with you. No thanks.I would try the stealth approach...e.g.: get there at sunrise when the parking lot is empty, get in and out as fast as possible.
I Googled this and found this- you need a permit!View attachment 116892View attachment 116892
I know this is a drone forum but every time I see a falls I try to shoot it with a 10 stop ND filter. I use the Big Stopper Lee Filter from England on a Nikon D750. I would also add, try to wait until there are no people around. If you see a ranger anyplace desist immediately. Your flight should not take more than 10 minutes or so.
