Hot Air Balloon over Kamas Valley

Itinerary tips

• 1Dress in layers even during summer, as temperatures at sunrise are significantly colder than mid-day surface temperatures.
• 2Allocate at least three to four hours for the entire experience, including safety briefings, inflation, the one-hour flight, and the post-landing celebration.
• 3Arrange for a shuttle or carpool to the launch site, as parking at rural Kamas takeoff points is often restricted to tour operator vehicles.
• 4Bring a camera with a neck strap to safely capture 360-degree aerial views of the Uinta Mountains without risk of dropping equipment.
• 5Wear closed-toe shoes and long pants to protect your legs when landing in unmaintained grassy fields or brush.
• 6Book your flight for the first morning of your trip to allow for weather-related rescheduling if winds are too high.
