A couple of thoughts - in the US, Wilderness Areas typically prohibit aircraft and, according to the FAA, UAVs (drones) are aircraft. This may vary from Wilderness area to Wilderness area but is a pretty good bet. National Parks in the US forbid take off / landings from Park property. The vast tracts of National Forest are usually amenable to UAVs although there can be specific restrictions (ie, for forest fires or special events). In the West, vast tracts of land are 'managed' by the Bureau of Land MisManagement and are typically open to flying, but again, there can be specific restrictions. These are usually due to an archeological / palentological site.
So there are vast areas where you are free to fly your drone, but also large swaths of land where you're not supposed to. Do your homework first.
Also, it's an excellent idea to be mindful of others. You can hear a Phantom from a long ways away, especially in a quiet wilderness environment. It behooves everyone to try to not annoy the rest of the planet with your hobby.
Since you are really new here, it would be a good idea to start at the
Know Before You Fly site and get an idea of where you can and cannot fly safely. Get a small drone (the $100 kind like a Hubsan X4) and learn the basics of crashing it into walls, er, flying. That will make you feel much better about taking a thousand dollar craft in the air.
Then work up slowly, gaining experience and confidence as you go along. Keep reading the forum, mostly about what you shouldn't be doing. Let somebody else make most of the mistakes, it's cheaper that way.
Have fun.
