Power and age

The old adage is that power is the last thing to go in an athlete (speed being the first?).At what age does one hit a power plateu for lifting?

I.E. I started lifting late, about 2 years ago. I will soon be 35. Can I expect to keept increasing my lifts for another 5 years? More? Less?
