The crisp morning air at sunrise.
Sunrise flights start out early in the morning shortly before sunrise. Your pilot will be in contact with you a couple of days before your flight with details regarding the weather and where to meet. We have a couple of launch locations so depending on wind direction, we will adjust to a launch site that will work best for that morning.
The scheduling calander will inform you on what time to meet for the flight. Once at the launch site, it doesn’t take long before the balloon is inflated, you will receive a safety briefing from your pilot, and before you know it, you are gently ascending into the air on your hot air balloon adventure!
During the flight as you drift above the earth, you will have time to take in the wonders of mother nature from a different viewpoint. See how the glaciers long ago created the valleys. See the rivers as they continue to carve their path on the valley floor. During the flight, we might see deer, fox, eagles, owls, ducks and other animals. Don’t forget to bring a camera!
Unfortunately time doesn't stand still and the balloon descends back to land. Our chase crew will meet us on landing and once we pack up the balloon, we will celebrate the flight with a little history story along with a champagne (or sparkling cider) toast. The hot air flight may be over, but the memories will last forever.
