COURSE CHANGES!

The technical committee has decided to go with contingency courses for the 16 km, 29 km and 53 km races on Saturday and Sunday. These new courses will essentially follow the Promenades to ensure the safety of skiers.

There will not be any changes to the 5 km, 10 km and Mini-Gazifère courses.

The trail conditions are fast, ranging from very good to excellent, and the snow will be transformed granular. The sunny weather will be perfect for the event!

The registration booth will open on Friday, starting at 5:30 p.m. in the Ski Show Salon, at école secondaire Mont-Bleu (389 boulevard Cité-des-Jeunes, Gatineau), and will be open all weekend for your convenience.

Welcome everybody!

An Important Message

The weather forecast for today, Thursday, February 12, calls for mild temperatures, with showers changing to snow in the evening.  

But starting on Friday, and for the whole weekend, we are expecting sun and temperatures between -6 and -14 degrees Celsius (The Weather Network). 

The technical committee and the Demsis recreational services team are hard at work getting the trails in shape for our thousands of skiers.

So we’re on track, and expecting that you will be too!  

The registration booth will open on Friday, starting at 5:30 p.m. in the Ski Show Salon, at école secondaire Mont-Bleu (389 boulevard Cité-des-Jeunes, Gatineau), and will be open all weekend for your convenience.
