What type of clothing should I bring on a 3 day skiing/snowmobiling trip?

What are the best types of clothes to keep warm and dry?

Answers:

NO COTTON! Outdoor enthusiasts have the saying "cotton kills" because cotton aborbs moisture but doesn't get rid of it. Your best bet is with synthetic fibers (i.e. polyester blends, polypropelene) which wicks moisture way from the skin and lets it evaporate. Examples of garments that use these materials include Nike Dri-Fit and polar fleece. Start with a close fitting base layer and increase layers as you see fit for the weather. Layering allows flexibility in regulating your temperature depending on how active you are.
