BALLOONS OVER ANGEL FIRE 
JUNE 13-15

Father’s Day weekend, Angel Fire welcomes more than 30 hot-air balloons to soar over the village and scenic Moreno Valley. Mass ascensions alight at 7 a.m. on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from the Angel Fire/Colfax County Airport. As one of the few high-mountain hot-air balloon events in the country, it offers plenty of opportunities to mingle on the field, chat with pilots, and snap lots of pictures. Bring your lawn chairs and a tailgate breakfast to marvel as dozens of colorful envelopes fill the sky.
