Originally called the Albuquerque Cloudbouncer Balloon Rally, it was started as a way to spark interest in the 1975 World Hot Air Balloon Championships and the 4th Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta which was moved from February to October that year. According to the January 1975 Cloudbouncer, a hare and hound and a possible flight over the Sandia's were planned. Also on the agenda was an all-in fun special social planned for Saturday night.
BTW, the first day of the rally featured a hare and hound event from the State Fairgrounds. And did we mention it SNOWED? Sunday apparently brought great weather for flying. Rio Rancho Event Center50th year.

Number of balloons: 135+
