From the Blanding Area Travel Council web site:
Blanding is the gateway to Utah's Canyon Country. We are surrounded by more state and national parks than anywhere else in the United States. This makes Blanding the perfect base camp for your adventure!
Enjoy red rock canyons, alpine meadows, and ancient Native American sites--all in the same day.
Blanding is the closest town to three of Lake Powell's marinas: Halls Crossing, Bull Frog, and Hite.
San Juan County also offers 3 of National Geographic's top 50 "perfect places to visit:" Muley Point, the San Juan River, and Monument Valley.
