What to Wear
• Absorbent socks in wool or other material that is not cotton. You may be tempted to wear two pairs of socks but this is discouraged this as the socks can cause your feet to hurt if they bunch up in your boots.
• Insulated, water-resistant gloves or mittens should always be worn, even on warmer days. Avoid wearing knit gloves or mittens as they will get wet and not keep your hands warm.
• A warm hat, or even better, a helmet. A helmet will keep your head warm and protect you. Helmets are available for rent if you do not own one.
• A water-resistant jacket with a high collar.
• Water-resistant ski pants or snow bibs to stay warm and dry.
• Goggles or sunglasses – at high elevations, the sun is extremely strong, and its reflection off of the snow
can damage your eyes. Protect them from the sun’s rays and other elements with a good pair of
goggles and sunglasses.
