Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, Glide Wax: , Grip Wax: Skins on skiis
Just lovely to be out. P10 was full at 1pm. P5 was empty. P8 was full.
Ice still hanging on the trees. Significant melting in the tracks but no issue at for skiing - Perfect temperature to be out. By Shilly Shally the tracks had more water in them.. just were not as white.
Lots of off trails customized from #1 single tracks on the snow from earlier in the day.
Looked like People had skied into Burma.. not sure how far
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.
