Hole 8 in between the water park and apartments (keep is low)
Hole 9 across the road near parked cars and river

Cons:
Holes 5 thur 9 watch for people/kids/ parked cars.
Other Thoughts:
Nice little course in a small town. If you are going to soak might as well throw. I heard it gets really busy in the summer months with lots of people. I went early summer, didn't have to watch for pedestrians or cars.
Good beginner course or if you trying new disc to see what they do. Good place for that.

Tricky with lots of snow on the ground, plays right next to highway to be careful on few holes. hole 2 i think it was played into a ravine hard to see from tee pad.

Played the course:5+ times
Pros:
This course is very forgiving, except for one hole (hole #9 - that runs along the Portneuf River). Most holes are surrounded by lots of open fields. Excellent place for beginners to get started playing. Double-chained baskets are top-notch. The grass and fields are well-maintained.
Cons:
Tee boxes are not well marked. They are indicated either by small red flags stuck in the ground or white paint sprayed on the grass. I had to play the course three times before I finally was able to figure out the correct matching of tee boxes and holes.
Other Thoughts:
This is largely a non-technical course. There are a few ups and downs, but nothing really worth mentioning. There are two blind holes (#3 and #8) and watch out for the pool on Hole #8.
