Great course that mixes in elevation change, trouble, and trees to great effect. Even the short ones are challenging.

Super easy to navigate even for a first timer.

Pretty easy to find the river on #5, but that's on you.

Great course with a wonderful use of the space, quite an exciting variety of holes. Water comes into play, lots of cool elevation change and challenge. Nice mix of long and short, open and wooded. Overall just a very nicely done course with lots of risk and reward, nicely shaped holes.

Tee Signs would be a very nice addition to this course, and it is confusing enough that I would consider them necessary. I found myself using the map on Udisc quite a bit. A couple of the fairways literally cross right over each other, which is unfortunate, however I suppose with the space given there isn't much choice in the matter, so be aware when driving! This course can be quite tricky to find unfortunately. If you google it, you will not find it. Follow the driving directions to the tee!

Tried a couple different courses in the area and this course was spectacularly fun! Unlike most courses in Colorado which was great to see! Lots of challenging shots, tons of trees, a nice shorter "birdie alley" in the middle, and just enough water hazard to make things interesting. If I lived in the area this would be my home course for sure, and it was the shining highlight of the trip! if you're traveling through, I would play this course twice before going to something else in the area.

Great experience playing where hawks hang out. Snakes, too, but that's ok. Plenty of shade on most holes. Tees are nice and rabbits are fun to watch. Short holes in the trees are fun to shoot. The soccer fields provide an excellent warm up area and new players can get a feel for their distances there or on the baseball fields if empty.

Doodoo creek is doodoo creek. It sucks but is mostly avoidable, at least for rhfh shots along the back side. Hole 1 is always thrown from an improvised area across the bridge by our short throwers. Not much can be done about that if you can't throw the distance, no issue otherwise.

This is like disc golf vs wild at times. I think that's amazing and refreshing but it might upset some people. I started playing in Columbus, Ohio and never had timber, fallen trees as an obstacle there but I like it. Some people may not.

Inmate noises and homeless camps. Whatever, that's life. They are there and some people we take there dislike it. I've hiked the area many times prior to the course build and have no problem with either. It's likely a pro since I've never encountered a crowded course here. Not even close.

Compared to other courses in other cities it should be a 3.5. For this city it's a 4. And the reasons it's not better are due to historical misuse of the land and other external factors. That should improve over time as it has so far. Right now it's a hidden gem and fun to play. To me this course feels like the disc golf I learned 20 years ago. Peaceful, challenging, fun, and rewarding. Even on a bad-throw day, you're still mostly alone and able to work on whatever you want to without being disrupted or disrupting others.

A natural oasis in the middle of a primarily industrial area, The Aviary transports you in to a serene world of peacefulness and focus. Formally a haven for homeless campers, a ton of work has gone in to making this a quality course that works fountain creek in to a couple of holes, short wooded challenges that reward putter and mid skills, and risk/reward holes with rough that can swallow discs. Great views of Pikes Peak on hole 5, not crowded because chuckers can't handle the skill level needed. I love hole #1 across the creek to a doable but tight window. Hole 1 tells you that this isn't a course for risk averse folks. Fountain Creek will take discs on 1, 5 and 17 if you aren't careful.

Subject to mud after rains, as not all tee pads are in yet (about 50% in). The walk down to the 5 basket can leave your shoes caked. I don't consider rough on the sides of 13 or 14 to be a detriment, but you can lose a disc if you don't pay attention. Need to finish the tee pads, and alternate basket positions would be nice. It does lack length a bit, as only 18 (and 2 for me) is really unreachable. Most holes are fairly straight, but trees add impediments you have to work around.

You can hear inmates at the adjacent County Jail yelling and screaming on holes 2-3, so it can kind of weird you out. I have played this course over 40 times and it is always a quality challenge. Birds in the trees (hence the name) are abundant. Wind is usually south to north, but not brutal. 6-16 holes are the sweet spot in the woods. Kudos to Eric Bouchard and the City for adding a quality course to the area, especially now with the recent closure of the sadistic Sakuna in Black Forest.
