15 Things Tuneup: Last-minute gifts for people who love the outdoors
Is there an outdoors enthusiast on your holiday gift list?
If so, we have 15 ideas for you — a variety of fun, practical, and mostly under $50 gifts available in the mid-valley.
For suggestions, we turned to some of the people we have featured and who have written columns since Oregon Outdoors’ inception last February.
Prices for the items listed will vary. We’ve listed prices at the locations where we took the photographs.
So check them out:
1) Licenses and permits. These include national forest passes, Sno-Park permits and hunting and fishing licenses, available at sporting goods and outdoors stores and online. Prices vary. A one-year state park parking permit is available for $5 off — $25 instead of $30 — through Dec. 31. Two-year permits (such as the one shown above) are available for $50. Permits are sold at the Albany Visitors Association and at state parks.
2) Wool running socks. Karen Swanger, director of KidsSpirit and Girls on the Run at Oregon State University who was featured in “The Joy of Running” in March, touts the warmth and versatility of wool socks. She uses them year round and says they’re the best socks for running in the rain.
