About this web site
This web site is a private non-commercial initiative by Michael McGoldrick. It is not affiliated with the NCC, the Gatineau Park, or any business or group involved with the Gatineau Park or servicing the cross-country community in the Ottawa Gatineau area.
It's about cross-country skiing in and around the Ottawa-Gatineau area, with an emphasis on the Gatineau Park. It is primarily aimed at people who are relatively new to cross-country skiing, although some aspect of this web site may prove useful to more experienced skiers.
No money is being spent to promote this website, so if you think it would be of interest to others, please spread the word.

All web sites by Michael McGoldrick are 100% non-commercial.
