I covered a lot of ground in/near the Owlsheads a few weeks ago and didn't find any, so you guys must have collected them all. I believe the Park was once asking volunteers to catalog where they found balloons, and there was a map (don't recall where I saw it) showing that they were found all over. In one 48 period in June 2021, I collected one in Jackass Flats, two near the end of the road near Last Chance Spring, and 7.5 in Butte Valley (including a "Happy Graduation!" bouquet of three). All of those were observed from my vehicle, so its not hard to imagine the vast numbers scattered just out of sight.
