Halle's Last Flight
One final balloon flight took place this past October in Albuquerque. It was a very moving
experience.
Flight to Remember
Chateau-d'Oex and the Swiss Alps can be a magnificent place to balloon. Unless you hear
the copilot say "Here comes a wind shear".
The Shiprock Challenge
The challenge is simple, fly your balloon over the pinnacle of the mammoth volcanic plug
called Shiprock in the middle of the dessert on the Navajo nation.
