What should I bring each week?
Blizzard members are required to have their own equipment: skis/poles or snowboard and boots. Helmets and goggles are highly recommended, as are snowpants, two pair of insulated mittens, and layers, layers, layers!
For food, we recommend a hearty lunch, several snacks and a non-caffine beverage (water or sports drink). If members prefer to buy food at the area, we recommend about $10- $20 which is typically enough for lunch, drink and one snack.
