Gatineau Park 19 Mar from P10, Burma, Ridge, 1B, 24 toward FT

Grooming today was excellent.  I left from p10 and went up Burma.  Burma is in quite good condition, although because of some of the frozen ruts and gouges the overall condition could be ranked as 7/10.  Ridge was fantastic all the way to the 2km to go sign for McKinstry at which point I had to turn around.  24 and 1B were also excellent.  Champlain Parkway from the cutoff at Huron was fantastic as it had not seen much traffic.  FP was in good shape but even by the time I was getting back to P10 @ 10:15 it was just starting to get worn down a little and the lot was packed.
It did seem that there was a good classic track everywhere but I suspect those skating enjoyed the day just a bit more.
Today was one for the ages, fast and flat with beautiful sunshine.
