Hotel Lobby LooP Video
View a 90-second silent loop video we put together highlighting places to see in Siskiyou. We created the video as a tool for lodging properties to show in their lobbies/dining areas in order to highlight all of the things to see and do in Siskiyou to encourage extended and/or repeat visits. If you'd like us to mail you a flash drive pre-loaded with the loop video, please email kevin@discoversiskiyou.com
Email Marketing
We sent a Siskiyou WANDER Pledge marketing email to our subscriber list. We created the Pledge as a tool to educate visitors about how to recreate responsibly in Siskiyou and mitigate impact on our trails and public lands. Learn more about the pledge.
