Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: , Glide Wax: Vauhti Blue, Grip Wax: Not sure, but I bet that Vauhti Fluor Orange would work fairly well.
About 2cms of fresh snow on top of a firm and somewhat icy base made for very nice skating today on the Gatineau Parkway. Classic looked to be nice as well, but bear in mind that there is snow in the tracks so you might need to use a bit more wax or something a bit warmer than you might normally think relative to the temperature.
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.
