Summiteers represent a diversity of organizations and expectations for dress. We suggest professional clothing that permits you to comfortably network, watch mainstage speakers, and engage with Deep Dive participants. Be prepared for snow on the ground, high temperatures in the 30s and 40s (F), and lows in the teens. Coat check will be available at all Summit locations.
