Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Gatineau Pkwy, #27, #29 (alternative), Glide Wax: F4 Universal, Grip Wax: Swix blue

Decided to try P2 even though I knew the area wasn't groomed. As expected the link to the Gatineau pkwy was skier made as well as trail 29 which had a fallen tree just before cite de jeunes blvd. Skied portions of 5, again skier made tracks which was mostly clear of debris from the 180 degree curve all the way to the Mine road. Gatineau parkway was of course groomed, with the classic tracks firm and a bit icy espically the outside lanes.
