Great to have some fresh snow again. I was enjoying the spring conditions and working on my klister skills but today was great. If you you like the sensation of floating on your skis try to get out somewhere that it hasn't been groomed yet. The amount of snow that has come down so far isn't enough to make it slow yet.
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.
