Where We Operate

Our presence focuses on scenic countryside, calm morning air, and easy chase access.

  1. Historic Fort Region — Fort views and open fields. Season: Oct–Mar. Meet point: outskirts near scenic roads (varies by day).
  2. Lakeside Area — Lakeside dawn routes and desert edges. Season: Oct–Mar; during fair weeks, times are limited.
  3. Lake City Region — Lakes and landmark silhouettes. Season: Nov–Feb. Gentle terrain with reliable landing sites.
  4. Hilly Valley Area — Valleys and hill landmarks. Season: Oct–Feb. Early starts recommended.
  5. Coastal Region — Coastal countryside and river bends. Season: Nov–Feb. Humidity managed with earlier meet times.
  6. Ancient Ruins Zone — Boulder fields and temple horizons. Season: Nov–Feb. Photogenic dawn light windows.
  7. Mountain Foothills — Foothills and river views. Season: Oct–Feb. Crisp air, clear mornings.
  8. Heritage Countryside — Countryside routes near heritage zones. Season: Nov–Feb. Routes planned away from congested corridors.

Exact launch fields may change with wind direction, permissions, and local events. We select sites with open approaches, friendly landowners, and good access for the chase team.

Operating Windows & Notes

Sunrise first: Most flights depart at first light when surface winds are calm and visibility is best. In warmer months, earlier meet times help us stay within the gentlest part of the morning.

Seasonal adjustments: Rainy season (Jun–Sep) is highly weather-dependent. Outside peak months we may reduce operating days or offer waitlist/reschedule options to keep comfort high.

Community & access: We practice quiet setup, respect farm boundaries, and leave gates as found. Landowner courtesy is part of every route we fly.

Our Balloons

A peek at our trusted fleet.

Each envelope and basket is maintained on a strict schedule, inspected before and after every flight, and matched to calm morning routes.
