Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: Gatineau Pkwy , Glide Wax: , Grip Wax:
NCC is reporting that vandals have ruined the grooming between Penguin and Mica. (I suspect that means a car or truck went for a joy ride on the parkways) They want skiers to be aware that the trails are not good in that section but they are trying to repair the damage but that there\'s minimal snow to work with. If you skied that section a first hand report/pictures would be appreciated.
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.
For suggestions on where to ski, excellent trail descriptions, photos and maps checkout Michael McGoldrick`s website about recreational xc-skiing in Canada`s National Capital Region (with an emphasis on the Gatineau Park).
