Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: #50, Glide Wax: Vauhti glide -2 to -20, Grip Wax: Blue V30

Skied #50 from P16 to #52. Conditions were the same as they have been for the last several weeks everywhere I've skied. Dry, pack powder base with tracks at mid depth and effortless , fast skiing. My only quibble was a few dirty sections with grit in the snow. Decided to take my skis off to descend the big hill back to the parking lot. Very hard base with not much loose snow to control the descent.
