Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: #5 (green), #26, Glide Wax: n/a, Grip Wax: swix universal klister

My route from P1 this morning was GP to #26 to #5 to Mine road and a short jaunt on the 25 and back on #5. Snow was wet granular and universal klister worked great even though it was 4 days old and very dirty. Still lots of snow but its getting dirty and grey/icey looking especially in the Asticou area. Tracks are still in fair condition. The only area with bikepath pavement showing through was the junction of # 27 and #5.
