In Southern California the typical prevailing winds tend to flow on-shore from the Pacific Ocean in a northeasterly direction. This weather pattern will usher any untethered, helium-filled object born aloft on these breezes over the Los Angeles area and deposit it in the adjacent Verdugo Hills or San Gabriel Mountains. It is not uncommon at to find balloons in various states of tattered disrepair hanging in trees or lying on the ground in the upper elevations of these mountain ranges.
