Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Gatineau Pkwy, Champlain Pkwy, MacKenzie-King Rd , #27, #7, #15 (blue), #15 (black), #26, #29 (shared), #35, Glide Wax: , Grip Wax: VR40

Another beautiful ski day. We skied the upper two thirds of the 27K classic loppet, leaving out the lower section. Snow was quite fast today, and conditions were enjoyable. The grooming (especially compared to yesterday's ski at Nakkertok! ) was stale and the tracks fairly worn and shallow. Luckily the good snow coverage made up for this. A lovely ski!
