Wardrobe Recommendations

This is a “layer smart” weekend—light snow at times, but the cold is what bites.

• Base layer: Thermal top and long underwear if you’ll be outside more than 15–20 minutes

• Mid layer: Fleece or wool (helps hold heat without bulk)

• Outer layer: Wind-resistant winter jacket—cloudy, breezy conditions can chill fast

• Hands/Head: Mitts over gloves for warmth, plus a toque and neck warmer

• Footwear: Insulated winter boots with good grip (flurries + hard-packed snow = slippery)

• Sunday night plan: If you’re heading out late, dress for -20s cold—skin can chill quickly in that air.

Weather Trivia

Lake of the Woods is so large and complex—with countless islands and bays—that it can create small “micro-weather” differences. One shoreline can be calm while another sees a burst of flurries, especially when winds push moisture over open leads or thinner ice areas during winter.
