Pilots do try to maintain at least 2000' above wild areas as requested

Where can I find the rules and regulations that specify how high
or low a plane can fly over various terrain, like cities, wilderness,
etc.

Also, is there an easy way from the ground to measure the height
of a flying plane?

NO
