Hot air balloonist flies over Mount Rainier
(AP) ASHFORD -- Once you fly over Mount Rainier in a hot air balloon, what's your next move?
That was a key question for a Kent balloon company operator after he completed the three-hour, 20-minute cross-Rainier flight from Spanaway to Yakima County this week.
The flight, reaching an altitude of 20,600 feet, was the first balloon flight over the14,411-foot mountain, said Vic Johnson, the pilot and co-owner of Go Lightly Balloon Co.
Other balloonists said they had never heard of anyone making the flight.
