Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: North Loop, Glide Wax: universal, Grip Wax: blue extra
with more snow coming down decided on another pass of the doldrums this morning. No grooming, but a few skiers had made tracks on the grassy shoulders which proved adequate. The parkway is still too thin. Poles go down to the pavement. Hope we don\'t get the rain forecasted for Friday and Saturday..
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.
