Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, Champlain Pkwy, Glide Wax: vauhti blue, Grip Wax: vauhti fluor carrot
All things considered, fairly reasonable skiing this morning in the Fortune "sector".
Once you get up to the top the pavement is fairly well covered and there are some reasonable skied in tracks over the grass. Classic is probably a better bet overall, but, as mentioned in the last report, you can do some skating if you pay attention and take it easy.
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).
