Locations of Saturday, Sunday and Monday sunrise launches (6a.m.) may include an area off Hwy 95 just south of Coeur d'Alene or an area off Hwy 41 near Mullan Ave - weather permitting. The location will be determined by the pilots in the mornings (approx. 5:30 a.m.) as they determine where the best wind & weather conditions are.

The sunrise launches are not part of the Lake Coeur d'Alene BalloonFest. These locations are posted to help crew and pilots know where they need to be for the launches.
