Elevation, elevation, elevation. How can you not like an elevated course?
With that said this course uses that elevation well with both uphill and downhill shots being accounted for. A good variety of hole lengths: short, moderate, and longer holes are all present too.
Nicely wooded holes to make you shape lines but there were also a couple of more open shots too.
Multiple pads and multiple basket placements to keep things from getting stale.
The flow of the course is logical

The canyon shot on Hole 10 is so much fun and then Hole 11 throws almost straight uphill.
The view from 4 and 12's tee pads is worth the hike alone!

Signage is pretty minimal so using a scoring app for the GPS feature is recommended.
The rubber and turf pads can get slick so be advised.
The hike from the lower parking lot to 1's tee and 18's basket back to your car is a bit taxing but it's just getting you acclimated for the course ahead.

Overall this is a sweet course. The elevation coupled with the woods makes this a must play course if you are in the area. You will need a variety of shots in order to score well here. In the summer months make sure you take enough hydration so that you can stay fresh during your round.
If you don't want to park in the lower parking lot, there is a side road that will take you to another lot up the mountain. It will let you have access to holes 10-12 and that appears to be where the locals prefer to start...they may be on to something.

I enjoyed this course and it has almost everything that you could ask for. It will challenge you both mentally and physically but you will enjoy the test. The views are worth it so do yourself a favor and get out and play Blue Mountain.

The majority of the holes on the Blue Mountain disc golf course are really good or great. There are some super downhill drives, ranging from wide open to heavy trees. The layout is easy to follow, and not too easy or too hard. There are multiple tees on every hole except 10 and 13. The tees are decent rubber mats, and all of the baskets were in good condition. I would love to play this course on a regular basis.

The first hole is through a gap in the trees, crossing over a walking path that is cut into the mountain deep enough to keep anyone on it safe from discs. The basket is slightly above the level of the tee, and protected by several trees.

Hole 2 is a good left to right drive that has a number of trees on either side of a defined fairway. The basket is on a gentle slope that goes downhill to the left side. 3 adds in more elevation, driving around big trees to a pin at the top of a hill.

Hole 4 is the first par 4, and a real bomber, long and down a massive hill. There is a lot of open space down the middle and to the right side, until you get to the bottom, where tall, mature pines stand if front of the basket. It is an awesome tee shot that will tempt you to throw extra shots. 5 and 6 are good holes that are fairly flat, 6 being fairly long. 7 climbs to make up all of the elevation that you dropped back on 4. A tough uphill drive, but not a lot of trees until the approach. Hole 8 is a decent birdie shot, and 9 is a reasonably easy par finishing out the first half.

The back nine begins with another elevated tee looking over a wide open par 4. Good chance for birdie if you nail the drive and follow up with a good second shot. Hole 11 makes up for the loss in altitude, climbing up the next hill, and requiring two good throws to get a shot at a 3 for birdie. 12 is short and good for a birdie look without too much difficulty. 13 is yet another par 4 playing way downhill, this time through heavy woods. There is a line that can take you to the bottom, but it is not going to be easy. The approach also has several trees to get by for a putt.

Hole 14 and 15 are pretty flat and moderately wooded, good holes but nothing crazy. 16 is another great par 4 with a fun tee shot. Slightly sloping downhill steady and long, through a corridor of trees that turns to the left at the end. A good RHBH drive will get you to the corner, and from there the basket is in view at the bottom of the hill with a number of trees along the way. 17 is also downhill, and a bit more open. Par 3 and over 330' from the long tee, but I made a good drive and sunk the putt for a birdie. 18 is flat and wooded, a tricky drive that is reachable if you hit the gaps between trees just right.

Tee signs could be better, some were missing. Losing a disc is not out of the question. I lost a Roadrunner on hole 2. It looked like a good drive, but I never could locate it. It may have rolled down the hill to the left, or been under a bit of tall grass. I also think it may have lodged in the branches of one of the trees on either side of the basket.

The parking was a little confusing. I wound up in the small area along the side of the road at the bottom of the path leading to hole one. There is a lot of parking in a paved lot across the street. There are also two lots where you could start on the back 9 that I would have probably used if I knew they were there. You can see them on the map that is linked to the course page.

This was the second course on day two of my road trip. I left Billings after attempting to play Diamond X and only getting in 8 holes there. Drove through rain most of the way to Missoula, where it was sunny with perfect temperature.

Blue Mountain is a wonderful course, and has some great scenery. There are 4 or 5 average holes, but it is majority awesome for sure. It is a par 59 layout that has opportunity to play under par if you're on your game. I shot a 63 first time out, but with a few repetitions I think I could make 59 or better.

the land this course is on gets a 5 star ,this is that beautiful post card quality course ,hole 3 basket is got a mountain vista view . this also is a mountain course i find forgivable because the elevation is not so high above sea level that your TL acts like a overstable firebird . discs still behave pretty stable up here but not extreme . lots of great up n down shots ,hole 7 is a really mean uphill .everyone loves the hole4 and 10 downhill shots .13 is the crazy one .13 looks like you are throwing down into a forest but once you walk down the hill it opens under the canopy well and you can find your disc [really cool hole] Its also a course that will give you a workout walking around and playing takes some skill. Must be mentally prepared ,Hole 2 I once hit the basket rim on my drive to only roll 250 down the mountain .

vandalism is such a issue that the course signs ended up being rebar n metal signs .broken glass everywhere ,[not discgolfers but general population types of the area that go mudding/4 wheeling n such ] place is just up the hill from the south end of town .

easy one to stop n hit wile passing threw on 90 to break up the travel .hidden gem status that may just make your trip. Also amazing design for a 25 year old course

Long holes, well marked, nice tee pads, good baskets. All and all great course spread out with no traffic even though we were here in January.

Really icy paths in the winter, last few holes little hard to find.

Would definitely like to play again in the summer!

Great mix of uphill, downhill, technical and easy shots on both blue and white tees.

Beautiful backdrops on most holes.

Can be a very strenuous course if you are playing quickly or generally out of shape.

Mid day during the week is a great time to play.

The wind can be your greatest obstacle some days and you don't even know it. The tee box is shrouded by the wind but as soon as you release the disc and pass the wind break you can see your disc get flipped.

A lot of folks in large groups taking their time on this course, lagging to smoke, drink or gab in general. Most of the trash on this course is a by product of said actives.

Dogs are all over this course with their waste quite evident.

This course will chew up baseline plastic.

Holes 1, 3 and 13 can get quite backed up. A lot of folks park up top and jump in on 3 and 13.

I played this course at least 25+ times while i was in town on business. If I was still there I would try to play everyday. I had some good days with some bad ones, each teaching a lot about the game.

This is an excellent course, but it's a toughy! Beautiful scenery - mountain course
Some very LONG downhill holes.
Favors the powerful and accurate player, all others feel dread.

Be ready for a professional-level course challenge.

I strongly recommend that you play this course with a local if at all possible. If not, be ready to get lost and lose LOTS of discs.

Multiple tees are blind and make it easier to lose discs.

Lots of undergrowth make it easy to lose discs.

Lots of players bring large dogs with them, sometimes more than one...this can make some people feel quite uncomfortable, but taking a dog along is a Montana "thing" so just be ready for it.

This was the first course I ever played, I didn't really know the game at the time, and I had an extremely frustrating experience.

This was the first course I ever played. That was about 8 years ago. I just had a chance to play again and had a much better experience though even as a seasoned player I still shot 20+ shots over course par.

With the experience that I now have, I know this is a fantastic course.

This is NOT a course for beginners. Ramp up to Blue Mountain.

Scenery is first rate!! Very nice layout with all kinds of shots...love the #4 and #10 hole. Very long downhill shot that you can watch your disc soar forever!! Very challenging with lots of hills for a great hike. Will definately play this course again!

Dirt tees which were slightly muddy after rain the night before. Need a map if playing for the first time due to vandalism of the markers. Concrete or solid tee boxes and repair the marker and my rating would be a 5+

A must play if you are even close to this course. Played on a Monday morning/afternoon and there were a few groups playing...might be busy on the weekend or evenings. I played back to back rounds and it was definately a workout so be prepared.

Has everything but water. Tight shots, open shots, uphill, down hill... super sick course!

Dirt tee pads sometimes muddy, caution. parking at the 1st or second parking lot is recommended, do not park on the road, you might get a ticket.

US National Forest Land, keep it clean. Please pack out what you pack in... i.e. beer cans and pop bottles

Million dollar views of the Missoula Valley and some long way down the hill shots. Truly an experience to play. Long and challenging.

Can be very crowded on nice spring days. Bring water.

Fire danger in July & August (usually) and icy slippery pins in February

Great variety of holes from bombers that go on forever to technical tree-lined testers. Very few generic holes. Wonderful views from many tee boxes. Excellent aerobic workout if you want it to be. At least a couple of signature holes - #4 & #10 stick in your memory with their huge downhill tosses that you can see all the way to the basket (or gully in the case of #4).

Hole #1 is in a weird location compared to most commonly used parking area, many locals start at #10, #12, or #13. Lung busting climbs if you aren't used to exercise at altitude. Several holes (#2, #3, #9, #13) are disc eaters, use spotters if possible.

A great course, but if you are just visiting, find a local to help you find your way and spot for long, blind, downhill shots and possible rollaway discs. This course gets a lot of play, so finding a friendly local is easy.

All 18 holes have rubber tee pads and there are two tee locations on 16 of the 18 holes. White tees are generally shorter and often avoid early hazards, while blue tees are more challenging.
