Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: Fortune Pkwy, Glide Wax: Vauhti LF Purple, Grip Wax: Vauhti K-Line Silver
We didn't go very far, but conditions on the parkway were quite good, having firmed up significantly since yesterday. While there was no fresh grooming, either classic or skate worked fairly well. Poles are still going through to the pavement, but skis are now safely on top. Looks like more snow on the way....
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).
