Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, Champlain Pkwy, #1, Glide Wax: CH7, Grip Wax:

Skated P10 to Ridge west to Champlain Lookout, then back via CP.

2cm of fresh powder over a hardpacked base. Absolutely no sign of grooming anywhere, but skiing is still very good. I didn't see any distance markers up for the Gatineau Loppet- perhaps a sign that the route is still undecided.

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.
