Afterglow and Houghton

Looks like good skiing at Afterglow!  From their "Ski Conditions" page:

~TRAIL CONDITIONS~

Good day to utilize our huge warm up room and relax around the fire.

Conditions: Excellent.

Full depth, solid, consistent, and firm classic tracks. Super smooth, firm, flat and even skate lanes. Solid pole plants. Trails have been groomed 31 times this season.

Ski Trails at Afterglow are groomed on average 5.5 times a week over any season. For the best possible results, we almost only groom at night. One person does all the grooming, which adds to quality and consistency. We have 8 miles of marked snowshoe trails, which run all around our private 33 acre lake. We also have a large warm up room overlooking Afterglow Lake. With the cold weather, you can relax in our warm up room waiting on the diehards in your group. See you Wednesday.

But dress warmly and bring a ski mask!  it may be windy at Maasto Hiito on Sunday, similar to other years.  Here's the current weather forecast:
