In the early morning beginning the first full weekend each October, Albuquerque, New Mexico puts on the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta.
In this screensaver video enjoy the movement of the balloons from takeoff to numerous balloons in the background exhibiting the famous "Albuquerque Box".
This unique wind pattern that occurs in the Rio Grande Valley, particularly in Albuquerque, New Mexico. This phenomenon is characterized by predictable and reliable wind patterns at different altitudes that allow hot air balloons to navigate in a relatively controlled manner. Here's how it works:
The Lower Altitude Winds: In the morning, the winds at lower altitudes (near the surface) tend to flow in one direction, often southward.
The Higher Altitude Winds: At higher altitudes, the winds often flow in the opposite direction, typically northward.
Balloon pilots can use these varying wind directions to navigate their balloons by changing altitude. By descending and ascending within these layers of wind, pilots can essentially steer their balloons back to their original launch sites or navigate with greater control within a specific area.
The Albuquerque Box is a major reason why Albuquerque is such a popular location for hot air ballooning, and it plays a significant role in the success of the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, one of the largest and most photographed balloon events in the world.
