3rd trinket option, both +10 Frost Resist:
Frostwolf Insignia Rank 6/Stormpike Insignia Rank 6

Comment by Lukarr

Another Frost resistance enchant option: Frost Mantle of the Dawn
+5 Frost res shoulder enchant which you can buy after completing Mantles of the Dawn

Comment by Anih

Imo this guide is pretty much worthless, there is absolutely no info about frost resistance gear you can get BEFORE you have acces to frozen runes... you can get 280 frost resist with totem/aura atm with 0 gear from naxxramas.

Comment by octopus984

You could also add Seal of the Archmagus, which gives you +6FR.

Comment by Sikey1

One more frost resistance ring Elemental Circle

Comment by Jakobud

You are missing all the craftable Radiant mail gear. Radiant boots are BIS. Also near the end:

"The Plague Bearer +15 Drops from Patchwerk, final boss of the Abomination Wing Wing in Naxxramas"

He's not the final boss. He's the first boss.

Comment by asdasdasd9001

Shard of the Scale set for 10fr with hp and mana regen?

Comment by sedaiv

The Darkwater Robes from the Scepter of Shifting Sands Questline gives +30 Frost Resist. It's only good for clothes, everyone else who does it should take the Band of Icy Depths.
