Hot-air balloon ride

Posted by hiptravelwriter on December 5, 2009

HipTravelReview went up, UP, and AWAY at the Page-Lake Powell hot-air balloon regatta this past November. Watch video. Janice and I went out to the regatta as part of media day for a taste of what it’s like to crew on a balloon team. Pilot Bill Lee even taught us the ballooner’s prayer.

Video contains some terrific footage of us helping to assemble the balloon, as well as some neat aerials overlooking Page and Glen Canyon. Bill pushed it to the extreme so we could get excellent close-ups of Glen Canyon. Thanks, Bill! And thanks to the Page Lake Powell Balloon Regatta Committee and Balloonmeister, Bryan Hill, for the fantastic balloon event.
