- Three layers of thermal clothing, plus a down jacket to pack in your backpack
- Waterproof and insulated snow pants, preferably with integrated gaiters
- Warm, waterproof, and comfortable boots
- Thick, breathable socks
- A hat, scarf, and insulated gloves, with optional liners for extra warmth
- And of course, don’t forget your camera to capture these magical moments!
It is important to cover your head as well as your ears, neck, and hands. A pair of finely lined gloves are perfect.
