Some days on the mountain are spent conquering summits and finding hidden tree runs. Others are spent conquering nachos and locating the nearest happy hour. Justin Fantl | Prop Styling by Laurie Raab

1. Stanley eCycle Flask | $20

No more flask funk. The eCycle's lip flips open to let you clean the container after you've finished off your 8-ounce Bulldozer. It's made of recyclable plastic, so maybe it'll be reborn as your sobriety coin when you hop back on the wagon.

2. Core Concepts Whiskey River Hybrid Shirt | $90

Sewn of nylon fabric that keeps wind and moisture at bay, it's a shirt made for bombing the slopes on warmer days. But it's also perfect for chilling at the lodge or making the occasional beer run. Bonus: Spilled drinks roll right off the water-resistant exterior.

3. Columbia Packed Out Omni-heat Slippers | $55

These après slippers put on a tough face with their rugged synthetic mud guards and rubber outsoles. But the soft, fuzzy interior is lined with tiny heat-reflecting disks that make sure your sore tootsies stay comfy while you stretch out.

4. Outdoor Tech. Privates Headphoness | $100

OT's Bluetooth-enabled Privates give you 10 hours of wireless listening on a single charge. Touch controls on the right earcup let you adjust the volume or cue up the next Bowie track by swiping your finger.

5. Native eyewear Haskill Aviators | $160

The lodge is cozy, but you might need to brave the outdoors at some point. Native Eyewear's shades will protect you from deadly snow blindness, and they'll make you look more badass than you actually are.

6. Sony RX100 II | $750

You ate a 10-pound burger for lunch? Photo or it didn't happen. Sony's upgraded 20.2-megapixel pocket camera has an advanced lens and a CMOS sensor that excels even in the dim light of the pub. It will capture every moment, including ones you'll wish you could forget.
