Expert Tip
For Arctic or remote expeditions, pack thermal base layers and waterproof outerwear, but also bring a pair of high-quality UV sunglasses—reflections off snow or ice can be intense. Travel during the brief Arctic summer (June to August) for extended daylight and the chance to witness the midnight sun.
