Green Belt

Trails Skied: 10, Glide Wax: universal, Grip Wax: green

This report covers the Larose Forest trail from P1 on Indian Creek Road. Trails are still be being packed down as more snow depth is required. No classic tracking except for a single, shallow skier made track which I improved with several passes. Skied the loop only and not the full trail towards Bourget. I managed to ski alongside a groove in the snow from the groomer which added some stability and control. Not a bad ski overall. Green grip wax worked flawlessly...
