Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: Gatineau Pkwy, #5 (green), #27, #26, #29 (alternative), #29 (shared), Glide Wax: universal, Grip Wax: blue
The classic skiing in the Asticou/Mont Bleu area this morning was fast and easy. Tracks still have a fresh layer of dry snow on a hard base. Fresh grooming on the GP and 27 but not the 26, 29 and the 5. Two groomers were laying tracks coming down the hill towards the Relais centre on 27 and a third behind them was obliterating the tracks. I found that kinda odd...

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.
