While most individuals can withstand prolonged sun exposure, it is imperative that babies, children, and those with sensitive skin always be shielded. The Sun's radiation is especially intense around midday; try to stay in shade during this period. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes. Mark this! Snow reflection can nearly double the UV radiation intensity from the Sun.
