While most people are not greatly affected by extended sun exposure, those with fair skin, babies, and children must always have protection. The solar radiation is most powerful near the mid-day, so the exposure to the direct Sun should be reduced accordingly. 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. Notice! The UV radiation of the Sun can be intensified nearly twofold due to the reflective quality of snow.
