Though extended exposure to the sun typically does not concern most people, it is crucial to always shield children, infants, and those with sensitive skin. Sun's radiation is most powerful around mid-day, so it's best to limit outdoor activities during this time. On days when the sun blazes, arm yourself with sunglasses that block UVA and UVB radiation. Mind this! Nearly twice the UV radiation from the Sun can be reflected by the snow.
