To get a taste of what to expect for this weekend's Valleyfest, we sent brave Inlander photographer high above Spokane Valley aboard the Spokane At Its Finest hot air balloon. The balloon, owned and piloted by Forey Walter, is just one of three that will participate in Balloons over Valleyfest. The weekend festival also includes a ton of other events, including several different races and bicycle rides, educational activities for kids, live music from an array of local and regional performers, food and other entertainment.
