Besides a wetsuit What should I wear for cold weather White water rafting?

I know that my husband, who is a member of the water rescue team in our town, wears the long set of under-armour for extra insulation. They don't get wet under your wetsuit.\n\nMake sure you have a life jacket and a helmet.

If its warm outside, i suggest water. Everyone loves getting wet!\nWater baloons, water relay races, water gun fights, ect, ect.

Trying to keep track (and actually use) extra gear in a swim is a bad idea.  Your best bet (other than a good PFD) is to learn self rescue techniques and practice them in less threatening conditions.  Just keep your head...very few people ever actually drown while whitewater rafting, but it is always a risk.

Try Campmor.com  They have a huge selection of outdoor gear.

The speed of the river takes away bouyancy.\n\nThe greater the buoyancy, the better. For use in white water, the armhole-style life jacket is essential. The horsecollar-style should only be used on calm water. Some life jackets are designed to turn unconscious wearers face up in the water, a feature you may want to consider. For more information, write or call the Department for the pamphlet, "Safe Boating Hints on Personal Flotation Devices."

Cold water is the best in this situation. Ice is too cold and can damage the surrounding area.

Jersey would be your best bet, and BTW, you're gonna have a BLAST ! ENJOY !...... Goggles, gloves, extra sox, and long underwear ARE A MUST on the slopes, it's minimal survival equipment, use nothing less ! prepare to be sore as Hell, and loving it !

my son is there now.......pack as light as possible, but;\n1.  Take bottles to carry plenty of water, you are at altitude and it is dry and you must stay hydrated.\n2.  Rain suit, not just poncho, violent thunderstorms are not uncommon.\n3.  Water filter, they will give you disinfectant tablets but you will still want to filter the water for "chunks".\n4.  Sunscreen, bug juice.\n5.  Layers - it can be 90 in the day and 30 at night.\n6.  Your troop should have plenty of guidelines available.  You also should have gotten the field manual.  READ IT AND FOLLOW IT.  This is not kid's stuff...you are in the outback for a week or more.

Bound & hubby here!\n\nAs everyone has suggested, try Cabelas (link to the page, for your convenience!).\n\nOur 10 month old daughter is being "outfitted" in Cabelas camo, not so much for the look, but it is quality clothing that IS warm, and she happens to like the look of camo!\n\nOne tip... if you see something for sale in the website, and want to go to one of their stores near you, print out the page with the web sale price and they will honor that price in the store. We just bought our daughter's snowsuit there. We found it for sale on the site and were told to do just what I've suggested. \n\nGood luck!

Make sure you buy a decent baselayer, i.e thermals. But don't buy cotton ones as if they get wet they stay wet for ages and lose their heat retaining properties.  Decent makes include, Icebreaker, Helly Hanson, The North Face, Lowe Alpine.\n\nAlso, instead of buying one big thick jacket to keep you warm, it makes sense to buy two or three garments that are lighter and more breatable.  This is because if it warms up then you can take off the required layers to maintain a comfortable warmth, whereas if you have big layer you'll probably end up being either too hot or too cold.  \nOh and take a flask with you, no mistake about that.\n\nHope have been of help.

check out travelsmith.com....they have a lot of comfortable shape enhancing pants & skirts.  or, just wear pants that are comfortable and change your shirts...wear bulkier blouses & sweaters, layer your clothes...button-down shirt untucked over a t-shirt, or a sweater over a t-shirt...since it is cold you can get away with it.  \n\nspend the winter getting in shape

DON"T GO if you won't wear a wetsuit. But if you must, wear wool because it will keep you warm even when wet. But bring lots of extra clothes you can layer in after.

For some reason it is my experience that cold weather makes me perform better. Maybe some under armor if you have that or any semi thin layered sweat shirt would do good.

Go to your nearest swimming friend and ask her for a fast skin, goggles and a cap.. if this is for a costume party you'll look great if its a little cold the Parka would add a nice touch\n\nif you dont know what a fast skin is.. your swimmer friend will, and plus girls look really hot in fast skins..
