What și pack, what și skip

Pack for the next 7 days
  • A warm mid-layer and gloves for early mornings and evenings
  • Insulated outer layer, hat and boots cu grip for ice
  • A packable rain shell - 7 of the next 7 days carry a real chance of rain
Worth avoiding
  • Avoid high-elevation trails without traction devices - frozen surfaces persist in shade all day.
  • If your dates are flexible, avoid aprilie, mai and octombrie - historically the least comfortable months here.
