Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: Gatineau Pkwy, #5 (green), #27, #26, #29 (alternative), #29 (shared), Glide Wax: universal, Grip Wax: blue
Excellent classic conditions in the Mont Bleu area this morning. Tracks were groomed 2 days ago, but had a few cms of fresh snow skied in to a hard base. With the lightly falling snow was expecting a slow go but to my shocking surprise superb grip and effortless glide. Easily my best ski of the season.
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.
