Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Gatineau Pkwy, #15 (blue), Glide Wax: , Grip Wax:

A quickie ski to check out all this new snow that arrived while I was out of town! It was 4:45 when I started and the fluffy snow was just pelting down, something around 5 cm was already down. It was such a delight to have snow without ice in it. Conditions were pretty slow, however, even on the downhills, but it was too beautiful to care. The photo was taken on trail 15, I'd love to have had more time to ski it all.
