North Dakota Hot air balloon ridesHot air balloon rides are big in North Dakota, and your family can savor this great and calm sport when the weather is favorable. While many people have never gotten near a balloon, those who have flown aboard in one remember this wonderful treat forever!The burner is fueled by propane, and is used by the pilot to heat the air inside the balloon's envelope (the fabric part above the passengers). When the air is heated, the balloon rises.
Why can't I get a balloon ride in the middle of the day? Balloons fly early in the morning, right after sunrise and late in the day, right before sunset. This is when the wind is calmest since the sun is low in the sky. The wind is generally too unpredictable, with severe up-and down-drafts, during the middle of the day. It isn't safe to offer balloon rides when the wind is unstable.
