Blanding was settled in the late 19th century by Mormon settlers,
predominantly from the famed Hole-In-The-Rock expedition. Economic contributors
include mineral processing, mining, agriculture, local commerce, tourism, and
transportation.
Blanding is located near both the Navajo and White Mesa Ute Native
American reservations, and a significant percentage of Blanding's population
has family ties to these nearby cultures. These quilts were hanging in the visitor's center.
