Fleece or midlayer
The layer you'll wear more than any other.
Warm hat (beanie)
Lows near freezing mean exposed skin loses heat fast.
Gloves
Wind at 24 km/h makes fingers numb without insulation.
Insulated winter boots
Snow and slush arrive in March, and regular shoes soak through by midday.
Sunscreen SPF 50
A UV index of 5.6 burns skin even on cool days with snow on the ground.
Polarized sunglasses
Glare off snow and water reflects UV rays straight into your eyes.
