Below are tips on how to be more comfortable on the mountain.

  • Wear warm pants and a jacket that is insulated, and wind / water resistant. While on the mountain, the weather can fluctuate and become cold and wet in an instant. Weather-resistant clothing will keep your body comfortable and dry regardless of the conditions.
  • Wear synthetic or  wool base layers avoid cotton products, as they are neither waterproof nor breathable. Synthetic material or wool works best. If it is very cold, then adding a mid layer over the base is suggested. A fleece, sweater, and other similar clothing will keep you warm on the mountain.

  • Insulated gloves or mittens are also very important ski items.
  • You should bring a minimum of two pair of ski socks, as you never know if you will need the second pair. Your socks also should be made out of wool or synthetic materials in order to keep your feet dry.
  • Bringing a backpack filled with sunscreen, lip protection, scarves, hats, medical kits, and other small items is also wise.
  • Bring a warm change of clothing to wear after snowsports.
