Winter hiking📍Colorado🥾❄️

Gear recommendations for hiking in the winter:
🔗Link in bio to my favorites 

1. Microspikes- I recommend the metal ones from kahtoola as they are durable and last longer. Admittedly when I first started I bought the cheaper ones and they only lasted 1 year 

2. Boots versus trail shoes- I almost always wear trail shoes unless the snow is going to be very deep or it will be muddy/wet where I want waterproof shoes. 

3. Layers- always bring layers and a day pack if you need to shed some. Believe it or not, once you get moving and the sun is out you may get too hot. Layers I always have are beanie, coat, base layers, and sometimes gloves depending on the temperature 

4. Sunscreen & sunglasses- it’s so sunny here and even in winter, especially with snow you can get a sunburn

5. Many others including but not limited to- snacks, water, etc 

What else do you want to know about visiting Colorado in the winter?
