Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: Gatineau Pkwy, #15 (blue), Glide Wax: universal, Grip Wax: Green with polar as a binder wax
Excellent tracking for classic from the Relais Centre up the GP towards P5 and back on #15 and #5. Leaves were not an issue today and presumably won't be anymore after tomorrow's and Wednesday's snow storms. Grip and glide were perfect and the skiing was effortless and fast. May want to use a binder, as my green wax was almost completely scraped off by the time I got back.
