The Ultimate Gift Guide for the Coloradan
Of course we love skiing, mountains, and hanging beneath the shade of two trees. We also love a baseball cap that boasts the fact that we get to enjoy those things here. Coloradan and proud.

EDITOR’S PICK:
Colorado Flag Guitar
Rebecca Gart, our Editor at Large, shares her thoughts on this guitar: "A little bit country, a little bit rock and roll, and a lot of cool. I simply adore this guitar that artist Todd Perkins has revamped into a piece of art. I’d put it in my office and daydream about the Telluride Bluegrass Fest." Also available in other Colorado and Denver themes; $750; Show of Hands, Denver, showofhandsdenver.com
