Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: #36 (blue), Glide Wax: , Grip Wax: Blue extra
Trail 36 from O'Brien: One of the most fabulous skis of the season. Stunning weather, beautiful fresh grooming done to perfection, nary a rock or patch of ice, perfect firm, classic tracks, much nicer than yesterday because the grooming was done a day later, after the snow had a chance to dry out. The late Winter light was beautiful - I had to stop more times than I should ever admit. I got back to the car just as the light failed. Photos will be posted sometime tonight on www.musicianonskis.ca/blog
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.
