Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: #1, Camp Fortune Race Course, Glide Wax: Vauhti Blue, Grip Wax: Vauhti Fluor Orange or, maybe K15.
The team had a great workout on the racing trails at Fortune today. The base is hard and fairly smooth, obviously with some fresh snow on top, which feels good after all the icy skiing we've been doing recently. The classic tracks are windblown and haven't been skied in yet, but they are certainly there.
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.
