What do you wear to Seven Magic Mountains?

Seven Magic Mountains is an art installation located in the Nevada desert, and the weather can be quite hot and dry. Therefore, it is recommended to wear comfortable and breathable clothing, such as shorts, t-shirts, and sandals or sneakers. You may also want to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun. It's also a good idea to bring a bottle of water to stay hydrated. While there is no strict dress code, it's important to dress appropriately for the weather and…

For John re: Mexico et al. Try contacting Raminta Tsopelas
Lilas Public Relations, raminta@lilas-pr.com, 917-721-1977. She represents lots of high-end properties at Riveria Maya and can probably connect you to tourism sources. Feel free to use my name.

Hi Erick, your best bet may be to contact the US embassy in San Jose. Here's a WEbsite that shows that Costa Rica had 1,100,000 visitors in 2000, and 48.7% (535,700) were from the U.S. The % was provided by the US embassy, so that must be the place that keeps those figures. Good luck!
Ed Wetschler May 13, 2010 at 12:17am

Erick, that's a tough one, because each country (France, Japan, South Africa...) only keeps statistics on Americans coming to it. So who would know this -- perhaps U.S. Customs?
Erick Hidalgo May 12, 2010 at 11:32pm

Ed, I am looking for stadistics on travelers from US. Thank you for your help.
Ed Wetschler May 12, 2010 at 10:17pm

Erick, if I read you correctly (i.e. travelers to the U.S.), this might help you. For a bonus, it includes a breakdown on where the travelers came from. http://tinet.ita.doc.gov/view/m-2009-I-001/index.html. If I don't read you correctly -- if you meant statistics on travelers from the U.S. -- sorry.

I note that not only did Madelyn Miller not answer the question I posed (about how much she was paying for contributions to her various online publications), but the request for contributors to her new venture has been removed.

Methinks she didn't want to tell the assembled media that she pays NOTHING for contributions to Travellady.com and her various other sites.
Erick Hidalgo May 12, 2010 at 7:34pm

Does anyone have stadistics of US Travelers in 2009? I really appreciate a hand!
Jon Haggins May 12, 2010 at 7:27pm

Thanks! John
