i don't know, i'd hate to tell you to come and then have everything suck.  but hey, if we get enough skiers to come it'll all be worth it.

their website says only chairs 2,4 and 5 are gonna be open. and if i'm looking at the trail map right there are no terrain parks you can access from those lifts... so? any afton locals, or anyone else, know if they're gonna have any jibs or anything.

our late season park is on hill 1, which chair 2 goes to.  the park as of last saturday was two jumps, down rail, flat rail, 30 foot down-weird box thing, and a smaller flat box.  could have changed by now though due to weather.

last year i got shit faced hammered in the parking lot and rode all day. it was a ton of fun, and if you have a driver, i would highly recommend doing this for closing day.
