Minimalist Packing: Ski Trip

ALTHOUGH IT MAY SEEM IMPOSSIBLE TO PACK LIGHT FOR A SKI TRIP (ESPECIALLY WHEN TRYING TO GET AN ENTIRE FAMILY TO THE MOUNTAIN WITH EVERYTHING THEY NEED), YET IF YOU FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE TIPS, YOU’RE GUARANTEED TO SPEND LESS TIME AT THE BAGGAGE CLAIM

BELOW YOU’LL FIND OUR TIPS ON HOW TO PACK FOR A SKI TRIP:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. USE PACKING CUBES AND COMPRESSION BAGS

Divide and conquer! By organizing everything into packing cubes, you'd be amazed at how much room you can save in your suitcase. Making those large objects smaller makes it possible to pack lightly for a ski trip in a way that simply wasn't before. With this technique, you can pack more into fewer luggage and fit everyone's belongings into just one bag.

2. WEAR YOUR BULKIEST CLOTHES ON THE PLANE

3. TAKE A MINIMALIST APPROACH

You'll need base layers if you plan to spend the entire day outside in the snow. Simply bring two sets per person and alternate them during your trip rather than bringing one set for each day. When you go back to the hotel at night, wash the clothes you wore that day by hand so they'll be clean and ready to use the next time you need them.
