Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: #1, #30, #4, Camp Fortune Race Course, Glide Wax: Purple (green would be better), Grip Wax:

Good day. Colder than anticipated (-16) but the snow felt colder/ slower.

Ridge and number 30 were not groomed and were fast/ a little skied out. Race trails were groomed. Very nice but much slower.

Mid winter conditions out there but not for long!
