Beautiful day out there! The parkways from P10 to Champlain were fully re-groomed this morning. It looked like P8-P9 were done too. Ridge Rd. was not done though and neither was Champlain parkway towards Black's. The groomed parts were definitely nicer (more consistent) than the ungroomed (a bit icy in some places and slow in others) but both are skiable at least later when the sun warmed it up.
I didn't classic, but I would assume it is universal klister weather.
Enjoy!
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.
