Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, Glide Wax: Swix blue, Grip Wax: VR30
Fortune Parkway really needs some fresh snow. It's thin and tired, particularly for classic. Some avid skate skiers evidently skied out much of the ascending classic track yesterday evening. BUT between the T and the top of Black Lake Hill, the classic is quite nice (only one or two bare spots) and towards Huron it isn't bad. There were lots of skiers out today. Nice to see!
Think Snow!!
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).
