HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE 2018 Finding the perfect gift for your loved ones can be a daunting task. After all, your family and friends are special — their presents should be, too. To guide you in your search, we’ve compiled an assortment of items from local retailers that we know you and the people on your list will love. This year, stay close to home. The gifts in this guide reflect the spirit of the region — they’re fun, adventurous and one of a kind. Among the array of goodies in the next few pages are a uKeg pressurized growler for the beer lover in your life, a handmade cribbage board, practical and stylish women’s waterproof leather boots, a comprehensive Scandinavian cookbook (skål!) and a laser-cut wood map of Humboldt County. Gift quandary solved! Now you can deck the halls, bake cookies for Santa, pick out a Christmas tree, cold-weather kayak and make new traditions with family and friends. — Cassie Curatolo
P.S. Mention the Holiday Gift Guide to retailers on your shopping journey — we love to hear that we’ve been helpful!
