Ski Resort Layering System

Layering for a day on the mountain can differ greatly depending on weather. Having the right layering system can make or break your day and having the right clothes to layer is important. I broke down the layers I typically wear and the brand/item of clothing I recommend for: warm, cold and frigid days.
