If you are planning a ski holiday or perhaps you are already at the site and prepare yourself for a day on the slopes then there think a lot. This is especially true if you are new to winter sports. You need to get your skis, boots and poles. You need to organize a lift pass and then you have to hook you with your ski class. Without these things you would not be your day to be successful, but there are a few other things that people often overlook the fact that also affect yourDay. Here is a checklist of 7 things you need on the slopes.
The first, what to take, is a trail map. No doubt, the one on the road map, dotted throughout the city, or even in your pocket version but it is important that you saw it with you when you are skiing. In spite of your studies, you must refer at least a few times on the first day. Perhaps less than a week goes by, but it's always handy to have, especially if you take a turn that you will not be usedto.
Lip balm and sunscreen. The lips are very sensitive to the sun and wind. You are one of the few parts of the body that are exposed to the weather. Make sure they will be protected as chapped lips can spoil your holiday. Take a small bottle of sun block, and top every few hours or so. This is especially around the face and ears, but it depends on the weather and what you wear. If there is a beautiful day, you can choose to ski in a T-shirt and have to protect the shoulders andArms.
Something to clean your glasses or sunglasses. Sunglasses often with a bag that doubles as a cleaning lady, so this will provide relatively easy if you have the bag for a long time as I lost. If you do not have the pocket as any substance, like a chamois, will do the trick. Obviously you need to be able to see where you are skiing so clear vision is essential. I'd suggest goggles or glasses are is crucial to how the glare from the snow too much, even on a cloudy day.Goggles are best but sunglasses are more comfortable in my opinion (depending on the type of skiing you are doing).
Carry some water and a snack. There are many cafes and rest houses dotted around the slopes and you do not have to look far to get a drink at the bottom of the slope, but a bottle of water is handy if you need a break during a run. It also means you do not have to ski to stop for too long. As for a snack, I like a bar of chocolate, and skiing is my excuse to indulge my chocoholicTendencies. Other people can have a energy bar or even a sandwich.
A cell phone is a good device for you if you have an accident or to keep in touch with friends. You need to figure out where they meet for lunch at least! Take your wallet with some form of ID and credit card or a small amount of money. You do not want a heavy wallet weighing you down.
