Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: #1B, #1 (black - Chelsea), #1 (green) (#2 - #24), #3, #9, Glide Wax: Unsure..., Grip Wax: Vauhti Superbinding (abrasif!) with Vauhti K line blue (forget the number)
Did a nice long ski from P7, to western, down on burma switching partway down to the #9. Also then skied across fortune lake to camp fortune, then back up the #4 to trail #1 and P7.
Conditions were excellent, great grooming and good grip. Fortune lake itself wasn't groomed but also was very fun to ski across. Would recommend skiing everywhere in the park, they just groomed all the fresh snow and it's awesome!

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.
