Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: Gatineau Pkwy , Gatineau Pkwy, Champlain Pkwy, MacKenzie-King Rd , #1 (black - Chelsea), #15 (black), Glide Wax: vauhti lf blue, Grip Wax: vauhti super binder covered with vauhti K12 (purple)
Very nice day out there. A bit tricky grip waxing as some of the trails are a bit icy, others almost dry and some warm and glazed depending on the sun and also when they were groomed. Everything is groomed though and the binder and purple worked ok. Skating looked to be nice too.
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.
