Green Belt

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

This report covers the Larose Forest Trails from the P2 parking area just outside of Bourget ON. Skied the loop that connects to the south trails. Basically wet snowed in tracks with snow continuing to fall. Waxless ski conditions but I don't own any so went with violet which worked well but still had to stop to remove clumping snow a few times. As well the uneven track made for a wobbly ski. Can't complain too much at least we're getting fresh snow in mid-March!
