Drones...ugh

We hate drones, and we really hate drones in the wilderness. So we're delighted about this story of prosecution:

We once hiked for miles into pristine wilderness, only to hear the synthetic buzz of a drone whizzing over head. When I confronted the operator, he first claimed ignorance. I referred him to the language on his wilderness permit.

He then suggested that we all wanted the same things when we hiked into the wilderness. I told what I wanted was peace and quiet

He eventually stopped flying his toy, but we have run into similar situations far too frequently. Leave your noisy toys at home, please!
