A lone hot air balloon floated over Carson City Saturday morning, the pilot taking advantage of calm winds and sunny skies.

The air, though, was frigid and still well below freezing at about 9 a.m. Saturday morning as the balloon made its way across the Nevada state capital before finally descending in central Carson City.
