Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, Glide Wax: , Grip Wax:

Going ....going..... almost gone.......... Started out from P10=>FP=>Ridge to Shilly Shally=>back same way. With all that said not too often you get to ski in shorts and t-shirt, even if the skiing is not good its fun to do.

The GOOD my first pic, the BAD the rest. We are getting to a point unless you want to walk or stick to the first part of Fortune parkway up to Fortune lake, the rest is disappearing by the minute. Probably parts of Ridge are still good for the time being the problem is getting there. I did meet about 8 skiers or so, the Doldrums look unskiable.

Its hard to imagine just 3 weeks ago we had that fantastic week of powder snow, didnt think it would go this fast!!!!!
