Given the potency of the midday Sun's UV radiation, one should avoid prolonged exposure. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes. Stay alert! Snow's reflective properties can almost double the UV radiation from the Sun.
