Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, Champlain Pkwy, #1 Penguin Climb, #1, Champlain Pkwy, Glide Wax: Vauhti Blue, Grip Wax: N/A

The afternoon report: Yes, the Skiing is still good! And by far the best day yet in my opinion! We covered quite a bit of ground hitting most of Parkways at some point and all of Ridge Road from Champlain down to the bottom of Penguin. Ridge is a little rough, but good coverage - I saw no rocks. Parkways are freshly groomed and smooth, the skating was awesome and I would predict the classic skiing being an alright choice too. Everything is looking and feeling a lot more wintery today! If you are considering a night ski, be sure to bundle up and get out there!
