Pros:
Nice cement tee-boxes.
Signs at every hole.
Lots of free parking.
Public washrooms in summer.
Easy enough for beginners to really have fun and not lose any discs, yet enough trees/bushes to make it a challenge for more experienced players to make pars.
Course is set up so that players will rarely have to worry about other park users.
Holes vary between forcing you to throw short and precise, long and straight, or mid-range curved shots.

Cons:
It is the only public 18 hole course in a big city. Even though it is new, people know about it so it can get busy.
Zero elevation change.
No overall course map posted in the park (print one from the 'Links/Files' tab).

Other Thoughts:
If this course is successful and draws a lot of players (which I believe it will) hopefully it will persuade the City of Calgary that disc golf courses in public parks are a good idea, and disc golf in Calgary can really expand! So PLEASE make an effort to keep the park clean and tidy.
