Ski trip packing essentials

Packing

When preparing for a ski trip, it's important to pack all the essentials to ensure a comfortable and safe experience on the slopes. Start by packing your ski jacket, pants, and base layers to keep you warm and dry. Don't forget to bring a mid-layer, such as a fleece or sweater, for added insulation. Keep your hands and feet warm with ski gloves or mittens and socks, and protect your head and face with a hat or beanie, neck warmer or scarf, and goggles or sunglasses. Remember to apply sunscreen and lip balm to protect your skin from the sun and wind. If desired, bring a helmet for added safety. Pack your ski boots, skis or snowboard, and poles (if skiing) in a backpack or ski bag. Stay hydrated with a water bottle or hydration pack and bring snacks or energy bars for a quick boost of energy. Don't forget cash or a credit card for lift tickets and food, and bring a phone charger and camera or GoPro (optional) to capture memories of your ski trip.
