Pros:

What a gem tucked away in the mountains south of Helena. Having played hundreds of courses, the setting is worth its weight in gold. This course is cleverly laid out using the terrain, boulders, trees (fallen and standing) and targets optimally. Fabulous views and incredible granite outcroppings surround you as you navigate up and down the hillsides and ravines.
- Very technical
- Great use of terrain and other obstacles
- Creative and varied hole placements/configurations
- Minimal impact on the feeling of pristine wilderness
- Better exercise than just a walk in the park
- Fun, fun fun!

Cons:

- No Baskets, tee pads, or signs
- Tricky putting, especially on a windy day.

Other Thoughts:

Even without tee pads, cages, and signage, the course was fairly easily figured out, especially with U Disc app. In fact, the lack of tee pads, baskets and signs helped keep the pristine natural beauty of the course. A joy to play and I couldn't wait to see what the next hole would be like. And did I mention FUN to play!!!!

I played the Hyzer Hills course the day before and it was outright boring compared to this course. The location itself is deserving of a 3.5 rating and the joy factor brings it to a 4. You only find courses like this in the west. If you need a bit more length, I recommend Blue Mountain up the road near Missoula. Also a beauty.
