Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Gatineau Pkwy , Gatineau Pkwy, #1 (black - Chelsea), Glide Wax: vauhti hf yellow, Grip Wax: vauhti K-9 (red) or K-12 (silver) or waxless

It is pretty slow out there today with the above zero temperatures and the fresh snow. The places that have been skied in more are faster, but don't expect speed! I skated, so I don't know what would work for classic but my guess would be K9 or K12.

Gatineau Park is ski paradise! The network of ski trails offer machine groomed skate skiing and classic skiing as well as little groomed backcountry trails. Multiple access points allow skiers to access a variety of terrain and scenery. The NCC offers season or daily pay rates.
