Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: , Glide Wax: Vauhti Blue, Grip Wax: Vauhti Fluor Binder, then Vauhti Fluor orange (several layers), covered with one layer of Vauhti Fluor Blue would probably work.
Kind of snowy and blowy out...nice once you get moving. P10 was full at 11AM. Ridge Road and the Parkways are in quite good shape for skating and classic. Ridge is groomed about as far as the junction with 24. Burma road (#3) in in passable condition for skate and classic, although certainly a bit rough.
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.
