What to Wear on a Dog Sled Tour

Dress for sitting in winter wind, not for a gym warm-up. You will not hike heat into your core the way you would on a trail walk. The kennel may loan outer gear — ask what they provide.

Quick Facts

• Windproof outer layer
• Warm mid-layer (fleece or similar)
• Gloves or mittens that stay on
• Insulated boots — not fashion sneakers
• Face covering on cold or windy days

What About Ski Pants?

Fine if you own them. Useful when snow kicks up. Not a reason to buy a full ski kit for one tour.

What to Leave Behind

Cotton jeans that soak and chill. Loose scarves that catch. Dangling jewelry near dog contact time.

FAQ

**Do they rent gear?** Some kennels do. Confirm before you drive.

**Helmet?** Follow that kennel’s brief. Not every tour requires one.
