Restricted areas in the US west coast?

[Dronefriend]

Will be going to:
San Fransisco
Yosemite N.P
Death Valley N.P
Los Angeles
Joshua Tree N.P
Grand Canyon
Some places around Grand Canyon that I cannot recall at the moment.
Kauai (Hawaii)

Will be going there in a month. Me and my gf will have my drone with us.

Is there anywhere we cant bring the drone legally?
Is there anywhere we cannot fly legally?
That you know of, of course..
Many thanks!

Sadly, all of the National Parks are off-limits.

Can we get fined for even bringing it there? I will have to bring it with me since we are traveling through NPs.

Thanks for the answer!

You can bring it into the parks. I had mine with me at the Badlands for my South Dakota trip, but leave it in the car or if you have to take it with you so it doesn’t overheat, keep it in the case. You just can’t fly in them. I didn’t get it out.

I have been to Yosemite also. You can’t fly and I don’t think you even need a drone there. Take the DSLR with a good zoom lens and some filters for long exposure of the waterfalls. Every site there is breathtaking.

Have fun on your travels.

After reading some more I might even leave the drone and not bring it at all. Seems you can't fly anywhere except in the country?
