Tips for What to Bring

Here is our list of recommended items for you to bring skiing or snowboarding in order to guarantee a fun first day on the slopes.

• Hat – if your head is warm the rest of you is likely to stay warm.
• Waterproof Gloves/Mittens – mittens are warmest. For the tow rope the best is leather garbage mitts or glove protectors on your regular mitts. Both are available at our rental shop for sale.
• Goggles/Sunglasses – Goggles are strongly recommended on cold or snowy days for warmth and increased visibility.
• Jacket/Parka (water resistant)
• Synthetic or wool base layers for top & bottom – it’s better to be warm than cold, you can always shed layers. Synthetic materials help to wick moisture away from your skin. Once again, do not wear cotton as a base layer.
• Snow/Water resistant pants – very important, your 1st day will acquaint your butt to the snow, keep it warm & dry.
• Warm, dry socks – No cotton. Wear only one pair of socks.
• ID, Wallet, Cash
• Extra Clothes – to change into when you’re all done, in order to go out and celebrate your 1st day.
• Equipment – If you decide not to rent, bring skis, ski boots, and poles; or a snowboard and snowboard specific boots.
