Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, #1, Glide Wax: , Grip Wax: blue extra v40
Agree with David's comments, at least outbound to Huron Shelter. The return was relatively slower, with new moist snow starting to fill the classic tracks. Although it was intermittently windy, the shelter from the forest minimized exposure. The blue extra wax is the Goldilocks wax for the most part this year.

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.
For suggestions on where to ski, excellent trail descriptions, photos and maps checkout Michael McGoldrick`s website about recreational xc-skiing in Canada`s National Capital Region (with an emphasis on the Gatineau Park).
