Layer for changing temps
Dress in moisture-wicking base layers, an insulating mid-layer and a windproof shell — remove layers on climbs to avoid sweating.
Footwear matters
Wear waterproof boots or use the supplied overshoes; cold, wet feet ruin a trip faster than anything else.
Start early for firmer snow
Morning departures (9:30) usually have firmer, faster conditions and lighter winds compared with mid-day tours.
Tell guides about limits
If you have cardiovascular concerns or mobility limits, disclose them ahead of time so the route can be tailored.
Waterproof insulated boots
Keeps feet warm and dry; overshoes are available but proper boots improve comfort.
