Wow! Have been skiing here for the last 3 day and the trails are amazing. The 12 inches of snow that arrived on Monday are packed and groomed and the trails are as close to perfection as possible. Pete groomed the 3 days I've been here and absolutely marvelous conditions are the result of all that effort!

Amazing! 10-12" new snow. Wind blown,non packing snow. Groomer went out at least 12 hours and result was magic! Very solid deck with soft velour surface. With the cold temps tonight of near 0F, everything should firm up and be superb for skate and classic. This place sets a very high standard for grooming excellence.

Pete Moline has the trails at Afterglow in excellent condition. I skate skied Saturday and Sunday. The trail were flat, firm and fast with good solid pole plants on all the runs. Pete was out working in the new 10 inches when we left Tuesday morning. Thanks Pete.

Afterglow trails are in excellent shape. Full coverage, plenty of deep snow, and a beautiful trail system. The trails have great rolling sections (I particularly liked trail 9), and the 4 and 7-8 loops provide the "elevator shaft" experience. The system is not huge, but there was plenty of trail to keep me happy for a few full days of skiing. The Phelps Loop is classic-only; the rest of the system is groomed for both skate and classic.

Perfect conditions at Afterglow. Yesterday's snowfall groomed to perfection. Was a fabulous day to be alive and on a pair of skis. Could not ask for more. On a scale of 10 the trails for skate and classic were an 11!
