Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, #1, Glide Wax: , Grip Wax: v40 blue extra

left P10 at 10:20. Classic conditions were slow, with new wet snow and snow continuing to fall in moderately windy conditions. Just a few blades of grass visible on the classic track on the climb. Quite a few skiers out: an even split between skate and classic. The one classic track was in so-so shape, needing a few more users; the skate area seemed to be okay, but also looked like a bit of work to skate on. Air temperature was around -4C.
