Hit the slopes in style this season with the latest gear and equipment
1 Expedition Worthy
Sir Edmund Hillary got it right…wool keeps you warm. That’s why breakout clothing manufacturer Icebreaker adds natural New Zealand merino wool to its entire lineup of outdoor garments, including the super-warm Landa zip top. $330 www.icebreaker.com
2 The Puffy Jacket
Sure, you might look a little like George on “Seinfeld,” but Obermeyer’s Soho Jacket for women, with its retro-chic styling and 600-fill goose-down insulation, will keep you warm on the coldest of slopes. $240 www.obermeyer.com

Strap the brand new VholdR ContourHD Camcorder to your helmet—yes, everybody will be wearing a brain bucket this season—for in-your-face high-def vids of you and the fam. $330 www.vholdr.com
