2023 Alturas Chamber of Commerce Balloon Fest

The annual Alturas Chamber of Commerce Balloon Fest saw a good crowd show up to watch the hot air balloons take flight in the vacant field just west of the new Modoc Medical Center Hospital off of Highway 299. The Alturas Lions Club provided a tasty breakfast fundraiser prior to the balloon launch.  On Saturday evening, some of the balloon pilots displayed a "night glow" demonstration after dark at the Rachel Dorris Park on South Main Street.
