Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, Glide Wax: , Grip Wax:
A beautiful spring day for skiing. A few of the usual early melting spots are looking suspiciously thin, and some spots, especially classic tracks, are getting very dirty. The skating was slow or not so slow, depending on the snow/ice content, but it was great to be out. P10 was almost empty today. There is one photo that didn't appear, so I'll post it separately. A few others are on www.musicianonskis.ca/blog

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.
For suggestions on where to ski, excellent trail descriptions, photos and maps checkout Michael McGoldrick`s website about recreational xc-skiing in Canada`s National Capital Region (with an emphasis on the Gatineau Park).
