CHECKLIST

Ski Trip Packing List

Everything you need for a ski trip, from the obvious to the stuff everyone forgets at home. Check things off as you pack — 29 items total.

The short version

Pack in this order: boots, helmet, goggles, gloves — the four things that ruin a trip if forgotten. Skis and boards are rentable; your boots aren't. Everything else on the list below is organized by where you'll use it.
