In contrast to children, who must always be shielded from the sun, most people can tolerate up to an hour of sun exposure without any burns. The solar radiation is most powerful near the mid-day, so the exposure to the direct Sun should be reduced accordingly. A wide-brim hat offers excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck. Sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection significantly reduce eye damage from sun exposure. Take warning! The intensity of the Sun's UV radiation can be nearly amplified twice due to snow reflection.
