Holiday Gift Guide Part II: Ideas for Your Health, Home, and the Outdoors

Still looking for the perfect gifts? As a follow up to our Holiday Gift Guide for Foodies: Give a Taste of Jackson Hole This Season, we have even more ideas for the people on your list. Give the gift of health and fitness, outdoor entertainment, accessories and new styles for the home. All of these gifts are local, and memorable options for the person who wants to use their gift instead of eat or drink it.

Health and Wellness…

A new year is right around the corner and for many of us, that means discovering a new routine, and finding new ways to take care of ourselves, inside and out.

Give that special someone the gift of overall well-being. At Core Pilates, Jackson’s most tenured pilates studio, one can develop every aspect of physical fitness including strength, flexibility, coordination, speed, agility, and endurance. Whether someone is new to pilates or well practiced, there are options. Learn to correct posture and alignment and improve balance, as well as facilitate optimal function of the internal organs, promote relaxation, release tension, and provide a path to inner harmony through a finely tuned body. Core also carries a large selection of athletic apparel, lifestyle clothing, accessories and gifts for the home.

And for that special someone in need of a little extra pampering, Pretty Bird Massage & Esthetics has a hydrafacial catered to the recipient, from deep exfoliating, to restorative, and age refinement. Other gift ideas include a 60 minute, 75, 90, or 120 minute therapeutic massage, spray tan, or wax. Your special someone will thank you.

VIM

Replenish, restore, and revitalize yourself, or a friend, this season at Remede Hydration Therapy. A minimally invasive procedure, hydration therapy is used to replenish fluids, vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, antioxidants, and amino acids into the body via an intravenous (IV) catheter. As a result, equilibrium is rapidly restored, and the effects can be felt instantly. All therapies are administered by licensed and experienced registered nurses. If someone you know is feeling run down, interested in improving their overall health, wellness, or athletic performance, give them the gift of hydration!

Outdoor Enthusiast…

grilled meats

If there is someone on your list who is a self-proclaimed grill master, or wishes they were, Teton Rental Center has a variety of Traeger Grills for sale, big and small, making it easy for you to pick out the perfect gift. Traeger pellet grills pack big flavor into everything you grill, smoke, bake, roast, braise and barbecue. And Traeger’s wood pellets are made with 100 percent pure, natural hardwood, giving an authentic and delicious flavor. Luckily, for those lacking any grilling skills, it has never been easier with Traeger.

Purchase a bike basket, new handle grips, a seat to match, or maybe a new helmet and gloves. Choose from name brands like Devinci, Rocky Mountain Bicycles, Norco, Xtracycle, Evil, and more!

We all know that person who’s aiming for 100 days this season, right? Well, this year, long lift lines and crowded ski resorts may entice some to find a new playground. A Snow King gift card is the perfect treat for someone to take a few turns at the only ski-in, ski-out resort in Jackson. Located at the base of Snow King Mountain, no matter their skill level, world class skiing and snowboarding is just steps away from the center of town. And, this is the last season that skiers, riders and walkers can enjoy the leisurely ride on the historic Summit Lift. Gift an endless supply of activities like skiing, tubing, and the cowboy coaster, at Snow King Mountain this season.

And, we don’t spend all that time outside without our favorite four legged friends. Our pets deserve some love during the holidays too! Teton Tails has treats, toys, gear, and grooming supplies for man’s best friend. Buy a new cozy bed, winter boots, or a sweater. Your furry friend will thank you for it. You can even hide some new toys in the bed to surprise your pet. Now for yourself, don’t forget safety gears, especially your Ski Goggles. They are vital for protection of your eyes, so invest in a good one! Grab something for the whole crew, you know they’ll get jealous.

And if you really want to make Fido drool, swing by Sweet Cheeks Meats for a dog treat, $1, or dog bone, $4 per pound. These guys make sure that nothing goes to waste!

Food and Fitness come hand in hand for this Central New York native. Coaching fitness is a first passion, but exploring new restaurants, sampling seasonal dishes and tasting fresh new flavors is a very, very close second. I love food and sharing a good meal with friends can be a highlight to any day.
