The following individual gear is required for the competition:

• OHIP card (you need this to get on the bus)
• skis, poles and boots
• Sunscreen - SPF 30 min for outdoor activities
• Water bottle
• Two pairs of gloves - one for use prior to racing and to keep you warm and the other pair for racing only.
• Balaciava - to cover your face on extreme cold days
• Neck covering - fleece or polypropylene collar
• Lots of socks so you can change as required. Polypropylene next to skin works great to wick moisture away and keep feet dry.
• Enough clothing to dress in layers for max warmth.
• 2870 Toque. If you don't have one let me know.
• Sunglasses
  
  
• Sleeping Bag

• Money for lunch and supper on-route to SSM. You will be getting a reimbursement when we arrive
