[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live at a ski resort so here is my list of must haves:

1. Base layer: Leggings and Turtleneck (either Nike Heat Gear or Under Armour)
2. 1 pair of Ski/Snowboard socks (Acrylic or Wool)
3. Mid layer top (Mid weight zip neck top)
4. Ski Jacket
5. Ski Pants (Burton makes my favorite ladies pants, check Amazon)
6. Helment & goggles (No matter what! Don't need ti for tubing)
7. Good gloves (Some snowboarders like gloves with wrist guards built in...more expensive though)
8. Face Mask (http://www.buckmans.com/men/accessories/face-masks/slamdanna-facemasks-15962-o4i_15962.aspx)
9. Handwarmers (I put one in each glove and they last for hours. If they get too hot put them in your pocket for later use.)

I also would also recommend taking a knit cap for wear when you are not skiing / boarding. I am also the poster who said I typically wear trail running shoes around the resort.

I don't know where you are going to ski, however, if it is a big resort it may be beneficial to have a small backpack. I skied at Whistler several years ago and wore a small backpack everywhere. In it I carried water, some snacks, tissues, extra hand warmers). It was a lifesaver out there on a big mountain like that.

Here's a link: http://www.amazon.com/Dakine-6-8210060-Avery-Parent-Womens-Backpack/dp/B00HZ00Q66/ref=pd_sim_468_4?ie=UTF8&dpID=51090wGA2yL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=0FPH2B1MJ1JEYPAHVV1V

Also, beginning boarding is brutal on the tailbone. Some people wear "butt pads". This is optional however, I'm just throwing it out there for reference.

No OP.  Thanks for this list.  My DD is going skiing for the first time this weekend and this list really helped me.  Thanks!

Have a great trip! [/quote][/quote]
