Who this list is for
Four friends driving to a ski resort for one day need more than slope gear. This list is built for the vehicle, the resort arrival, and the wet-gear return trip after skiing or snowboarding.
How to use this list
First confirm four ski or lift tickets, four photo IDs, the parking payment card or resort pass, and the roof rack or cargo box key. Load skis or snowboard equipment, boots in boot bags, and helmets before smaller items. Give each person goggles, a waterproof jacket, snow pants, gloves or mittens, a neck gaiter, and wool socks. Pack lunches, snacks, water bottles, and thermoses where the group can reach them.
Common mistakes
Do not assume one person has the cargo box key, tickets, or parking pass without checking. Avoid mixing dry socks with wet gloves and boots after skiing. The two large waterproof bags are for wet gear, while the four pairs of dry socks are for changing before the ride home.
What is on this list
It covers four sets of skis or snowboard equipment, four pairs of boots, helmets, goggles, jackets, snow pants, gloves, gaiters, and wool socks. It also includes boot bags, eight high-energy snack portions, two thermoses of hot drink, four packed lunches, and four water bottles. Cross off gear each friend already owns or has arranged to rent.
Before you go
Do a quick cabin check after loading: keep food and water accessible, and leave the waterproof bags open for the end of the day. Verify that every person has their ticket and ID before the car starts moving.
