   Can You Fly a hot air balloon in Albuquerque?

   • At higher elevations the winds are northerly. So balloon pilots can launch their hot air balloon from Balloon Fiesta Park, drift down the Valley, catch another wind current and drift back north and land near the place they started. Albuquerque’s cool morning temperatures also make it easier to fly a balloon.
