Enchanted Outpost

06/19/2025

Now that we are fully distributed (our initial distribution cycle), I wanted to share just a small snippet of comments and emails we have received about this issue of Enchanted Outpost Magazine. We are really delighted everyone has been enjoying their copy. I have several components for the next issue that I believe will improve the reading experience. Take a read below.

"This current issue, I don’t even know if words can express the experience I have had and I’m not even through it yet, has been spiritual almost. The stories resonate deeply with me. As if a part of me has been hidden for a very long time and these stories are awakening me to this forgotten part of myself. I’m not woo and this all sounds very woo. It is what it is and I want to say thank you. I can feel how much of you both goes into each issue and I think you have a subscriber for life. As I said, I don’t know that words adequately convey the impact. I did the best I could. Thank you and I pray your magazine and your passion for what you do will be around for a long time."

Last fall, we visited Mission: Wolf—a wolf sanctuary in Westcliffe, Colorado—for an article we ran in our Winter 2024 issue of Enchanted Outpost. The article came out great with stunning photography. One facinating thing we learned while spending time within one of the wolf habitats at the sanctuary with a wolf expert was the way wolves say "hello". Essentially, while sitting on a log, we were asked to keep our eyes wide open and smile with our teeth fully exposed. The wolf who had found us curious approached face to face, looking right into my eyes and licked my teeth while I looked directly into his eyes (and then squinted). This is a natural practice among wolf packs as a returning wolf who has been out hunting will have his or her teeth licked by other members of the pack to determine if that returning wolf has had a kill. And thus, both Heather and I experienced a wolf "hand shake". Or, I guess we could have been working instead in a cubical at some company wondering what other people were doing with their day. Do what you love and love what you do.

Meet Collin Leuthold, our Director of Sales at Outpost Alliance and Enchanted Outpost Magazine. Collin graduated with a degree in Business Management from the Colangelo School of Business at Grand Canyon University. Following he was acquired by United Healthcare in sales where he was formally trained in sales strategy under the UHC sales training program. He went on to become one of the top producers on his team in Tempe, Arizona. He is also an avid photographer and aspiring writer.

We were fortunate to lure him away from that role to help us grow our sales team which will encompass four positions—each overseeing a quadrant of our vast focus area.

Collin relocated to Angel Fire, New Mexico to our headquarters from Scottsdale, Arizona.

This morning, we excited to report that we have partnered with a distributor for Enchanted Outpost Magazine in Amarillo, Texas. Our magazine is now in 10 locations across the city and next week that number will grow to more than 25 locations including, primarily, hotels along Interstate 40 and Interstate 27 and downtown. We will also be in hospitals, travel centers, and on doctor's office coffee tables. Thank you to Duane Sanders, a resident of both Amarillo, Texas and Angel Fire, New Mexico for his commitment (and excitement) to helping us grow Enchanted Outpost Magazine. The march continues forward. With our current distribution as well as the online version of the magazine and our subscriber base in 23 states, we estimate we reach around a half of a million readers across the nation with each issue.

As cofounder of Outpost Alliance and copublisher of Enchanted Outpost Magazine, Heather Jo Leuthold strives to deliver one of the highest quality publications in the country. A professional photographer, writer, key liason for strategic partnerships and public relations, her work accumen and drive as a female entrepreneur in the media industry is admirable. Prior to launching Outpost Alliance in northern New Mexico, Heather—an expert in cosmetology—successfully launched and operated three hair salons in Michigan and Arizona. Her experience in this realm of business is infused into the quality and style of the upscale lifestyle publication.

This morning, we are excited to share that we will be featuring, once again, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class on the back cover of our magazine. Mercedes-Benz of Santa Fe has reserved our back cover of the Summer 2025 issue. It's one thing to have such a prominent brand believe in our magazine to be on the back cover once. It's an entirely different thing to have them purchase it a second time. We are grateful to those who continue to believe what we are doing makes a difference and is necessary for the economic prosperity of our region.

Do you watch Dark Winds on Netflix? We conducted an interview of an individual yesterday while sitting in his kitchen—in a 26-room adobe home he built with his own hands—for an article for our summer issue of Enchanted Outpost. During the interview he shared with us that a number of scenes of season two and season three of Dark Winds, a Netflix series Executive Directed by Robert Redford, was filmed right in that very kitchen. New Mexico is a major movie making state. Amazon and Netflix have studios in Albuquerque. And there are several rentable studios in Albuquerque and Santa Fe. Hundreds of movies and streaming series are made here. 🎥
