We had to carry the whole system about a mile across White Sands National
Monument once. 2 people carry the stuff bag. 2 people carry the basket
(with carry poles of course) and 1 person carries the instruments. None of
it was heavy, but can be a bit awkward.
I quit ballooning every weekend a few years ago, just didn't have the time
to be able to commit to each and every weekend. Of course it was never a
business, just a hobby. Since I started geocaching I have thought about
all the great caches I could have placed while I was either in the balloon
or driving the chase truck.
