Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Gatineau Pkwy, #5 (green), #27, #15 (blue), #29 (shared), Glide Wax: , Grip Wax: Polar

Think the cold temps kept the crowds away. Classic skied form P2 around Pink and back via the Gatineau Parkway. NCC reporting fresh grooming on all these trails, but they were well used. Skate lanes were very firm, but not icy and classic tracks were in good condition. Fortunately the firm snow conditions meant the guy walking two dogs along #15 did not do much damage.
