Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: #6, #30, #4, #14, Camp Fortune Race Course, #11, #22, #34, Glide Wax: Vauhti Cold, Grip Wax: Vauhti violet
Got out on some of the small trails this morning and really enjoyed it. Watch out for the odd place with a rock or two but otherwise these are great conditions for ungroomed skiing - firm underneath with some fresh snow on top to slow you down and soften the landings a bit! Parkways and Ridge Road looked great too, and it was also very nice to see the Camp Fortune racing trail groomed (no tracks yet).
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).
