I've never gone skiing, but I'm curious- what would you do with all of the clothes you are shedding on the top of the mountain? Do people ski with backpacks to hold extra clothes and whatnot?

In the Backcountry, yes. Water, food, avalanche probe, shovel, etc. are all necessities. As well the gear a person uses to ascend. It's a lot of work but the views and the skiing make it worth it.
