Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, Champlain Pkwy, Glide Wax: N/A, Grip Wax: Universal Klister

Snow coverage on the FP and CP is still good with icey slushy sections that are now close to the pavement. Single classic lanes on either side of the FP, which appeared to have been groomed recently, are in good shape. No track grooming beyond the T junction on either side of the CP. Skied towards the first look out and the ungroomed track is mostly icey\\dirty but skiable. This was likely my last outing of the season. Weather does not look encouraging for the rest of the week and I squeezed my last tube of good klister last week. Used a non brand name klister for this trip which did not work well at all.
