Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: #5 (green), #27, #15 (blue), Glide Wax: Swix Universal, Grip Wax: Universal Klister
skied out from the Relais Centre along the GP to past the CP intersection and came back via #15 and #5. Universal klister worked ok with a bit of slip here and there. No fresh grooming and tracks were a bit faded especially along # 5 between the end of 15 and the GP. Skiing trended to be slow and the tracks sank a bit but all in all not a bad ski for mid March. Got back to P2 just in time as it started to rain...
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.
