The mid-day Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation, so seek shade and minimize exposure. A wide-brim hat offers excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck. Sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection significantly reduce eye damage from sun exposure. Remember this! The UV radiation of the Sun can be nearly doubled by the reflective properties of snow.
