Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Gatineau Pkwy, Glide Wax: , Grip Wax: vauhti fluor carrot

It was a nice day to get off the groomed trails and into the forest. There is enough snow to make the backcountry trails nice, not so much that you can't use racing skis. I peeked at the parkway (between P5 and Mica) and found that it wasn't groomed. I can't say what its like anywhere else though.
