Trails Skied: 10, Glide Wax: universal, Grip Wax: polar as a binder and blue for grip

This report covers the Larose Forest trails from the Bourget side of the park at P2. All XC trails have been groomed since last week's rain and subsequent snow fall. The east/ west trail for classic with sections for skate and the north / south trails for skate with a single classic track are all done. There's some icey and dirty sections here and there but nothing too serious. The skiing was fast and effortless, highly recommended! Condition reports can be had by checking Foret Larose Forest on Facebook.
