Notes
Afterglow Ski Trails are groomed for skate and classic 5-7 times a week with a Tidd Tech G2. The full width groomed trails are protected by a thick mixed hardwood forest with trees right to the trails edge. A large heated warm up room is perfect to wait for the diehards in your group. UP snowbelt for reliable snow.Trail Reports

Skied here for 3 days with a group of women. We've been coming here for several years. This is an awesome place since trails are always groomed and tracked to perfection. Classic skied all trails and showshoed. After the big snow on Wednesday afternoon/evening, Pete had all the trails groomed by the time we skied early in the morning. Had the most perfect ski in many, many years on Thursday morning. Perfect grooming and the most amazing snow conditions. Thanks Pete and Gail!

Fabulous skiing! Firmly packed powder, super flat skate deck with fast, powdery corduroy. Makes you feel like a Superhero! Conditions that Birkie skiers dream of! If you have tomorrow off, check it out. Consistently meticulously groomed. Well worth the drive!

I can not imagine the amount of work that went into getting the trails open. Actually we toured the trails today. Just enjoying the scenery. The trees were holding mass quantities of snow. Trails were groomed to perfection. A very good workout.

14" new snow. Very good to excellent conditions. Normally with 4" new snow we would do 2 passes. One for skate land and one to set classic track. With 14" new snow we completed 7 passes on every trail. We also have trimmed back all branches and small trees hanging over the trails. From the freezing rain a week ago until now, I have never trimmed this many trees in a week in our long history.

Excellent! 10 for 10 on skate and classic! Two days ago 1/2" of ice fell covered by snow, just like a hard wax cover of klister. 4" new snow fell overnight. Two situations, the groomer responded with different methods for both, amazing!
