POLAR DAWN Hot Air Balloon Team (Dawn Patrol) 50th Anniversary Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta 2022

Come join me as I crew for Rick Jones and POLAR DAWN during Dawn Patrol!
Watch us finish inflating, standing up the balloon, and lifting off before sunrise for the Dawn Patrol Early Morning Show. Today's east to west box pattern in the sky created a really nice balloon flight that spiraled north out of Balloon Fiesta Park. POLAR DAWN ended up landed on the edge of Corales and Rio Rancho. I ended up walking the entire park collecting as many Balloon Trading Cards as I possibly could get. And made some really awesome connections!
It's too bad we caught a bad inflation with my friend's balloon, and I'm not sure what happened or if they ever got off the ground today. But I hope everything worked out for them!
Find us tomorrow at M3 for Dawn Patrol if you're out that early at Balloon Fiesta Park.
