Gurgling stream at ‘Gossip’s Corner’, Gatineau Park, Quebec, Canada on 22nd December 2025 – by Laura Nerenberg

“I’ve been doing a tonne of cross-country skiing just north of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada in Gatineau Park, Quebec. 

One spot, at the intersection of 2 wide trails is popular for stopping for a chat, and has been nicknamed ‘Gossip’s Corner’.

Under ‘Gossip’s Corner’ passes a stream which continues to flow most of the winter, often under layers of ice and snow. On December 22, 2025, it was partially covered and gurgled raucously. I managed to get a recording without too much interference from passing skiers.”
