Gainteau Park ski conditions 20DEC10

Began @ P10 then up Ridge to Champlain lookout and back along the parkway.  According to the GP website no grooming had been done but skating was excellent and parts seemed to have some recent grooming.  Along the Fortune Parkway the classic track was well worn but much better on Champlain Parkway.  Ridge had almost no classic track and I'm not sure there is enough snow to make a decent track.  The skating was fast and quite slippery on Ridge.

Ridge is very bumpy which will be fixed with more snow.  However I wonder what the impact will be on grooming, as we get more snow, with Ridge having been "rounded".   I think Trail 50 may have been rounded too based on my ski there yesterday.

The trees continue to be spectacular.
