Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, Champlain Pkwy, #2 (from #40 to #1), #3, #21, Glide Wax: , Grip Wax: Super Pink covered in Violet

Great ski Today! Parked at P10 and skied Burma where I met the groomers and had freshly groomed tracks for the rest of the trail. Then went onto trail 21 which had pretty good coverage just a few big rocks that were easy to miss. Then took Trail 2 and went towards Champlain lookout and back to P10 via the parkway. Great skiing and fresh grooming on all the trails I skied (except 21 which is a backcountry trail, I think). The tracks were glazed and reasonably fast expect. The skating looks good too.
