Gatineau Park

Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, Champlain Pkwy, Glide Wax: Vauhti Purple, Grip Wax: NA

Just noting that I skied on Wednesday night from P10 and conditions were good (relatively speaking) for either skate or classic, but particularly for skate-especially as you got higher up. It was actually kind of powdery feeling, and had been packed by some kind of machinery in places. Megan did some classic skiing on Ridge on Wednesday afternoon and said that it was pretty good (again, relatively speaking) there as well.

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.
