UAV Crashes Into Yellowstone National Park’s Largest  Hot Spring.
 
Reuters reported that on Wednesday, a Yellowstone National Park official  
stated that a tourist crashed a camera-equipped UAV into the Grand Prismatic  
Spring last Saturday. This is the park’s largest hot spring. The article 
noted  that even though such flights have been banned in national parks since 
June,  officials are still seeing a rise in UAV use. Yellowstone National 
Park is now  trying to determine how to pull the UAV out without damaging the 
spring.
