How do you "steer" a hot air balloon?

Question

I understand you fill the balloon with hot air, but how do you control where the balloon goes?

Answer 1

The wind direction changes with altitude. Only way you can alter your course is to change your altitude and find a favorable wind

Answer 2

It is actually simple to explain,you ride different air currents.  I havenever done it but i watch a lot of television which is where I learned the answer to your question.

Answer 3

You adjust your altitude up or down until you find winds blowing the way you want to go.

Answer 4

You can only fly if the wind in favorable in your direction you want to travel, you can steer a little by changing altitudes as different altitudes have different wind directions and you have to hunt the one you want to travel in and stay at the altitude.

Answer 5

find the right altitude that has winds going in your direction.

Answer 6

You don't steer a hot air ballon you make it go up and down to get in another wind route

Answer 7

Ask God to start blowing in a different direction.

Answer 8

You don't really steer it .  You raise and lower it to catch different  air currents at different altitudes  Other than that, experience  and a map will tell you where to start to go where you want to end up.
