About Us
As a professional civil engineer and resident of the area for some 35 years our president, Geoff Straughn, brings an abundance of personal travel experience, local understanding, and engineering map layout and production expertise to inject into this product.
His awareness of the serious need for a valley-wide tourism map for use by motel front desks, event coordinators, parks & rec depts., and visitor's info centers and the huge market to athletic event participants inspires his efforts.
