dull 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Nov 18, 2012 Played the course:once

Pros:

-Free bottom loop
-Good mountain air and nice views
-Not many pros to name except that technically, it is actual disc golf with ok baskets and poor tee pads

Cons:

If you love challenging and creative course design, don't bother with this course. Wide open and uninteresting. Plus the native plants grow tall out in the open so you can watch your disc land and still spend 15 min looking. The tragic part is that there are wooded areas in abundance close by. Plenty of scenic beauty and potential. This course just needs to be relocated into the pines and redesigned by a knowledgeable player/designer who is familiar with risk/reward and obstacles.

Beautiful area, less-beautiful course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Aug 9, 2012 Played the course:once

Pros:

The scenery is gorgeous. The tee signs are easy to find and they have great info on them regarding hole distance and elevation change. The course does seem to flow and only a few pins were tough to find from the tee boxes.

The pins do have pink flags on top which make them much easier to see than unmarked pins.

Cons:

The tee pads are pretty ugly. They're a mix between wood chips, good-sized rocks, and black tarp. The brush isn't too long, but will irritate your calves if you're wearing shorts. There are no garbage bins to be seen, or benches at any of the tee boxes.

The course is also uncreatively designed. Aside from two tucked-away pins, each hole is a straight shot to the basket, and few holes are longer than 300 ft. It could qualify as a pitch-n-putt dg course, if there was such a thing.

Other Thoughts:

I only played the first 9 (at the bottom of the hill) so I don't know if paying the gondola fee would be worth it to play the upper 9, but if the lower 9 is any indication, save your money and just play the lower 9 twice - or not.
