Early Tourism with Lin Ottinger on The History Hour

Imagine it’s 1960, and you’ve just rolled into the tiny town of Moab, Utah for vacation. You’ve seen photos in magazines of the ‘canyonland area’ and you’re looking for someone to guide you to these spectacular places. Well, there’s pretty much just one expert guide to do the job – Mr. Lin Ottinger of Lin Ottinger Scenic Tours and the Moab Rock Shop. On the latest History Hour, Lin guides us back in time to the early days of Moab tourism.
