Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: #5 (green), #26, #29 (alternative), Glide Wax: , Grip Wax:
What an absolutely amazing day! Fresh, firm and settled grooming everywhere except 29.
Parkway from P3 was perfect, so were 5 and 26. It does not get any better that this.
Get to your parking spaces early this weekend. I predict overflowing parking lots everywhere.
And remember to hide your valuables (unfortunately).
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).
