Beautiful skiing this morning, cold but sunny and fresh grooming everywhere! Ridge road was great. I also checked out the Fortune racing trails which had been groomed a few days ago for both classic and skate. They had a cm of fresh snow on top of the grooming which made them quite slow, but it was nice to see them groomed.

Gatineau Park is ski paradise! The network of ski trails offer machine groomed skate skiing and classic skiing as well as little groomed backcountry trails. Multiple access points allow skiers to access a variety of terrain and scenery.
The NCC offers season or daily pay rates.
For suggestions on where to ski, excellent trail descriptions, photos and maps checkout Michael McGoldrick`s website about recreational xc-skiing in Canada`s National Capital Region (with an emphasis on the Gatineau Park).
