Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, Champlain Pkwy, Champlain Pkwy, Glide Wax: Violet Storage Wax, Grip Wax: VR 40

P10 to the lookout, then top of Black Lake and back. Mid-winter classic perfection! State of the art grooming, complete snow coverage, fewer oak leaves than yesterday, cool sunny easy-wax weather, zillions of happy skiers out. It's by far the BEST ski I've ever had this early in the season. The only negative was the colossal traffic jam when we left P10.
