New visitors guide arrives

The San Juan Record is ecstatic for the release of the new 101 Ways to Experience San Juan County Visitors Guide.
The packed 64-page magazine is included in this issue of the newspaper and is distributed throughout the area at visitor centers and businesses. A generous grant from San Juan County Visitor Services allowed the printing of an additional 7,000 copies in 2023, for a total of 27,000 copies.
“We at the Blanding Visitor Center love this publication so much!” said Lynne Shumway, director of the Blanding Visitor Center. “101 Ways to Experience San Juan County is one of the most useful tools to have for visitors.”
Local residents and visitors alike are anxious to have a great summer in San Juan County. The guide is intended to help in that effort. There are a number of new adventures in the 2023 version of the magazine, which includes glossy color on every page.
“Our biggest challenge each year is narrowing down the options to just 101 ways to experience San Juan County,” said San Juan Record Editor Bill Boyle. “I guess we could print 1,001 ways, but it would take 640 pages!”
Every corner of San Juan County is included, from the waters of Lake Powell to the Four Corners Monument to Dead Horse Point.
The guide includes two checklists this year, a list of the 101 ways to experience the area and a list of advertisers in the guide. In addition to the publication, the magazine can be found at www.sjr101.com.
The San Juan Record website and Facebook page will include updates and weekly reminders of the 101 list. In addition, Redrock92 Radio will remind listeners about the availability of the visitor guide.
The book is full of spectacular photos, many from readers of the San Juan Record. Natalie Randall provides the stunning cover photo of mountain biking at the end of a glorious day.
