BTW I do not recommend flying in the North Cascades as most of that area is national park property (no drone zones). Nice thing about Sprague Lake is that it is out on the hlgh desert (technically it is stepe there, but definitely has a high desert feel there) and is well out side of any national parks or wilderness areas. There is a wdfw boat launch area along the south side of the lake, however last I checked, there are no blanket bans on drones in wdfw areas other than the national wildlife refuge areas (like the one near Cheney) as far as I can tell. Btw on the north cascades, I do believe there are some places where can get drone views of them from a distance where you are well outside of the National Park boundaries. For example, between Rockport and Marble mount, there is a pull out off of highway 20 along the river that can make for a good vantage point, especially on a clear day. Also on highway 530 between Darrington and Rockport, I think there are some boat launch areas along the Stillaguamish river where you can get.some cool drone views.. wouldn't be surprised if the Winthrop area has some good vantage points (can't fly at Pearygain Lake State park without a permit), but there might be other places along there that could probably work in that area as well.

Sprague Lake is the big desert lake of of interstate 90 between Ritzville and the Spokane and Cheney area. It is out in the high desert area there. East of Sprague, the scenery starts to change from high desert to wooded area along 90 as it heads towards Spokane. On a side note, I have been to Keechelus lake near Snoqualmie Pass on 2 different occasions when I was still living in Snohomish (flew from the boat launch area there too). Though I do live in the Spokane area now, so I probably won't be going to the cascades as much as I used to (longer drive from Spokane Valley than from Snohomish). Though I did do a flight near North Bend a few.weeks ago while visiting the Seattle area. Most flights will be in eastern WA and Northern idaho going forwardThough. Will probably revisit Sprague Lake again sometime (probably next year sometime at the earliest).

Where is this lake in Washington state? I was stationed in Sedro Woolley,, WA. At North Cascade National Park.

looks like alot of building there

Hey Adm thrawn may I suggest a night time drone flight

Another nice video, Ryan!

nice. new subscriber.

Yeah the lake in the distance is White Lale. It is the dried up lake near the 395 freeway. Was able to get some drone footage of the lake last year (flew from a pull out last year). However I wish I coupd do another drone flight in thst area, but I am staying at the Lake Tahoe area until Thursday (rode down therr with my parents yesterday) and will be flying back to Spokane on Thursday (going back to work at Walmart on Friday), so I probably wont Be able to this go around. May see about doing a drone flight or 2 along Lake tahoe at some point this week. South Lake Tahoe is crowded, so the north shore of the lake migjt be better where itnis less developed and there are less people around. But we shall see. Though I would consider scouting out new places to fly from on future trips, especially as more houses go in there. Only limitation I have is that I don't have my own car with me, so I am limited on where I can go on these trips. Otherwise I would see about getting more drone flights. The area around Hallelujah Junction migjt be worth scouting out too. Can't fly at the wildlife areas in California without a special permit, but there migjt be other places that could work. Btw if anyone else here is from Nevada or California, they could see about getting more drone footage in the Cold Springs and Bordertown areas.

Whoa! I've got to have some trees! I can see a lake in the background. Can you get some shots of that? I'm curious 🤔 Another excellent job of drone flying!

Very good drone footage please 🙏 add me 👍👍👍👍👍

Beautiful drone footage please 🙏 add me 👍👍👍👍👍

More beautiful drone video, Ryan. Makes me want to fish every one of those lakes!

BTW I have since moved to Spokane Valley (summer 2023). Will likely. E a while before I can visit San Juan Island once again. Working full tome at Walmart now tok. Woupd likely have to be a 3 day trip to the island and back from Spokane Valley. Probably won't be this year, but perhaps on another year

I think you need to try fishing those lakes!

Beautiful view around

👍 #1 Nice drone footage 😊

bonjour. that is super drone. 🤝

Nice flying

Nice flight and beautiful views

Cool. Any big restrictions in Idaho you have found finding places to fly?

Very good drone video please 🙏 add me 👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏

Realy nice friend video footage😍

Awesome . New subscriber

Great video, Ryan! What is the range of your drone?

Subbed! Avata user from Seattle

Great job, Ryan! Your video reminds me of when Linda and I rode our bikes around the lake. We were visiting a friend (His Appalachian Trail name is Bigfoot) who lives very close to that lake. Thank you for the great video!

Wow 😊

Lovely footage 👌

Yeah it was me first getting my feet wet when it comes to drones. Was self taught. Fast forward to 2023, I have a much better and more powerful drone now (dji mini 2). It is no high end drone, but it is definitely an upgrade from both the Holy Stone 220 and the 720 drones (along with the mavic mini).

Another thing: it was tempting to bring my drone with me when going to animal ark. However I am sure you would need permission from the zoo owners before flying (not sure what the rules are on drones there). Elsewhere, I am sure there are some areas out in the desert there where I probably can get away with flying at, however Reno nevada is a less familiar area for me, so I am not going to know all of the places where you can fly at and what doesn't work. Did manage to get a few drone flights though, especially in the cold springs area. Also sierra nevadas in California too. I didn't have my own car with me, so i was limited to where my parents went along with Linda. Pyramid Lake was tempting, but nobody else wanted to go there, plus it does appear that the lake is in the Palute Indian reservation and drone flying there is frowned upon by the locals there. Apparently some rangers will stop you when flying there too (probably need a special permit to fly there among other things at the lake). Probably easier driving around Pyramid Lake and taking photos with your camera phone and sharing the photos later after leaving the reservation. I am sure that flying over Pyramid Lake can be done, but would require some careful planning and timing. Would have to be discreet and keep flights short to avoid attracting attention to yourself (either that or finding a good vantage point where you are not in the indian reservation area and get views that way. Plus now with remote id in effect, you would have to watch over your shoulders when flying there), though sometimes it can be said that it is easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission for things. I am sure there are areas along Pyramid Lake where you probably can get away with flying drones at, but I just don't know where. Washoe Lake was tempting too, but at least parts of it is in Nevada State Parks property and per nevada state park laws, you can't legally take off or land in the Nevada State parks without a special permit. Would have to scout out areas there that are not considered state park property.

for those leaving dislikes, remember that I don't live in Nevada nor work for Animal Ark. If you don't like seeing animals in captivity like at zoos and wildlife parks, nobody is forcing you to watch these videos. Zoos and wildlife parks have been around in America for a long time and are probably not going to be going away anytime soon. If you are the type that hates zoos or wildlife parks, that is on you and your real quarrel is with the zoo and wildlife park owners (not visitors or tourists like myself). I don't normally visit the Reno area in Nevada, but it was worth checking out. Sure it is a desert environment, but I am sure that zoo keepers make sure the animals are cared for and well fed (weather wasn't incredibly warm that day either was on the chilly side instead). Note that it is not my place to try and free the animals there or have them released into the wild. If people have complaints about the well being of the animals, they are welcome to reach out to the Animal ark management directly on that one (can find the phone number or email address at their website, same goes for other zoos and wildlife parks). Didn't actually go there to try and free the animals anyways (taking videos and pictures of them instead). People are welcome to go through the legal channels if they really want the animals freed, but that It is a matter that can only be settled between those who want the animals freed and the Zoo Keepers and management themselves. Plus Animal Ark management has the final say on whether animals get released back into the wild or not. I have no say on that matter what so ever. Just enjoy seeing animals you don't normally see everyday. After all, when was the last time you seen say a bear, tiger or wolf in the wild? Also not every day you see foxes in the wild like the silver and gray foxes I saw at the wildlife park. Normally foxes are very elusive creatures and it is not every day you see them in the wild (usually most active at night when we are sleeping and plus they usually run away as soon as they notice you or at least keep their distances), unless if you live in an area where foxes are common to see (like on San Juan Island).

you should so a drone of all the Contruction in post falls

Superb! ❤❤

Amazing footage. New subscriber. Thanks.

Man, elementary school was the good times. I wonder how my teachers would feel if they knew I'm a sophomore now! Ive been to that school since kindergarten and now I go to Snohomish High School
