This course is placed on a plot of land with a good mixture of trees and open areas, and a nice rolling terrain. While some of the holes are flat, many of them have a significant element of up or down. Some of the baskets are placed in rock formations and near steep drop-offs to make the greens more interesting.

Plenty of trees to play through, but nothing that I would consider tight or a tunnel. Layout requires a good mix of straight, hyzer and anny shots. Several holes offer two clearly different routes to the basket.

Most of the holes are in the 250' - 325' range, but the shorter holes tend to have the more severe elevation so they are still challenging. Only Hole 18 exceeds 400', but it is the big par 4 finishing hole at 658'.

New looking printed aluminum signs were useful. They show hole number, par and distance, and display a simple map of the hole. They also have a next tee arrow which is welcome.

Navigation was surprisingly easy as most tees are close to the previous basket and there are obvious paths.

Tee pads are natural, and were pretty rough and rutted out the day I played. Some were not level. Hole 2 had a rubber pad, but it was covered with fine grit and was remarkably slick.

Targets are a mixture of homemade baskets and tone poles. Not really a significant con, but they could be better. The baskets originally had too large openings but wire has been added to close them down.

When I see that a course is in a National Forest and still has tone poles, I expect a course that is impossible to navigate without a local guide. This course is absolutely ready for play and simple to navigate.
