two water bottles, you get so dyhdrated so fast when you're up at the glaciar.

dark lenses, for the sun, remember it's summer so the sun is gonna be super bright.

hoodies and t shirts, it gets really warm there and you won't wanna be wearing a jacket.

sunscreen, i didn't wear it when i went and i got the worst sunburn on my face that ive ever gotten in my life.


Those are the four things that when i got back from camp, i thought, "oh shit i should have brought them."

don't forget to bring loads of drugs and alcohol to camp with you, and to offer some to the organisers, especially if you're underage.

Bring that jacket anyway!! Chances are you won't need it but the weather gets crazy. I've seen it snow in July, and I wished I had my jacket.

ha yeah, definitely one of the days i was there it was 40 degrees and raining, it was freezing. but just saying that you'll end up probably not wearing it much if at all.

Don't buy unnecessary things you don't need. If you can afford to bring mad money, spend it on more skiing.

definitely
at the second darkest lens in the line, they should be perfect.

there is a mad sale on freeskier/jiberish colabs on freeskier.com  i.e. around $35 dollars
 pm for coupon code.

I got that last year at camp. It sucked so bad. So sunscreen is crucial.

I can vouch for spring/pipe gloves too. My winter ones were way too hot.

You'll want long sleeve shirts, because falling on that stuff is no fun in a tee. You'll be bloodied up real fast when you combine learning and bare arms.

Dark lenses are a good idea, but I was alright with my pink irid lens. It didn't bother me at all, and that's a fairly bright lens to begin with. You don't NEED one.

And another thing would be spare boot liners maybe? I don't know if you're going to Whistler or not, but if you are and were planning on water ramping, skiing the next day in wet boots is not a fun thing.

Have fun!

I would bring a clear/persimon-like lens with a nice darker one for sunny day

I would bring a Shell and a hoddie

long sleeve

sunscreen, lip thing, light gloves

The weather can be from snowing, ice rain, rain, bluebird sky or all at the same

Other than on the glacier I don't know

Have fun
