If you've ever been in the mountains, you know that the weather can change at any moment. It could be a clear day in town, but in the mountains, it could be pouring rain. It's unpredictable which is why we always recommend carrying a rain jacket, an extra fleece, and waterproof shoes as backup. Be prepared for anything.

Also a lot of hikes and viewpoints take you to glacier lakes and high elevations which can make things cold. Make sure you carry a sweater or jacket to keep you warm so you can enjoy the views.

At night, the temperature can drop significantly so be sure to have a jacket handy as it'll come useful and the sun starts to set.
