Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: #1, #1B, #1 (green) (#2 - #24), #24, Glide Wax: Swix CH4, Grip Wax: Rhode blue klister biner and Vhauti blue (K12) on top
Remarkably good conditions given the lack of snow. Quite dry and even windblown is some spots. Hard classic track but probably good binder would have worked. No icing though. Downhills were lots of fun: flat across, solid with just enough give in the corduroy for control. Fun all round.
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.
