Climb abound the PSC ‘Shag-Hound’ (Lamers Coach) and join 36 groovy cats while

baby”.
We’ll be staying at the Country Inn,
conveniently located nearby in Cottage Grove, MN. The hotel features a breakfast room where complimentary
continental breakfast awaits us each morning.
Saturday morning we’ll head to Afton Alps.
Surrounded by Afton State Park, this sprawling area offers enough runs
to keep a skier busy, as it's massive for a Midwest ski area. With 48 trails, four terrain parks and 18
chairlifts, there's also enough terrain variety to keep skiers happy.
Sunday morning, after a Shagging Saturday night, we’ll venture to Welch
Village. Welch Village offers a variety
of 50 runs that cater to all skiing levels.
With a quartet of black-diamond runs, the front-face runs are among the
steepest in the region. Two nicely
spaced day lodges along the bottom of the sprawling ski hill offer lots of
eating and lounging choices.
