Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, Glide Wax: , Grip Wax:
Short afternoon of ski from P10, managed to get a spot to park. Fortune parkway was beautiful nice classic tracks, nice level surface for skating. I made it to Shilly Shally.
Here is somewhat of an update on Ridge Road, they have cleared the trees up to Shilly Shally from Fortune parkway after that you have to dodge around the trees. On the other side its cleared up to Keogan lodge. I posted a few pics to show.
On my way up Fortune I met some workers on a ski-doo with chainsaws coming back. Slowly but surely we are getting a few more trails opening every day as of today part of #55, #29, #5 , #27 are now listed as green on the website (49%). Keep up the good work guys.

The NCC offers season or daily pay rates.
