Unlike children, who always need sun protection, most individuals can remain in the sun for up to an hour without getting burnt. The most potent solar radiation is around mid-day, so one should minimize exposure to direct sunlight during this period. Sun-protective clothing, a long-sleeved shirt and pants, a wide-brimmed hat, and UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses are particularly helpful in blocking UV radiation's harmful effects. Foresee this! The reflection from snow can nearly double the intensity of UV radiation from the Sun.
