Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: #1, #2 (blue), #30, #3, #9, #4, #17, #18, #31, #12, Glide Wax: , Grip Wax:
Started from P7, my route was #30=>#1=>#4=>#9=>#2=>#18=>#21=>#3=>#12=>#1=>#8=>#17=>#31=>#30=>P7.
All backcountry trails are in good shape, except #12 had one rock showing but well indicated with yellow marker.
Ron I had that experience on #36 last weekend with the rocks but I wiped out. The snow had started to fall as I was making my way back to P7. Who knows what this week brings with the warmer temperatures hopefully not too much rain.
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).
