Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Gatineau Pkwy , Glide Wax: NA, Grip Wax: Waxless skis

We just came in after tromping around in the bush a bit. We did get as far as the Champlain Parkway near the trail 15 intersection. Generally, we have very good coverage and very wet, heavy snow. Interestingly, there was significantly more and drier snow at Champlain Parkway compared to at Notch Road. I would expect that trend to continue the higher up you go. Rumour has it that grooming will not happen until temperatures drop significantly below zero. Hold on tight...
