Pros:
I expected a lot better course.
That being said here are the pros:
The mountain views are simply amazing. I absolutely love playing the resort courses for the views, the clean air, getting away, hiking and playing disc golf all blended together makes for a good time.
The course is challenging. It's not often that you find a course that makes you bring your big arm, but this one does in a big way.
Multiple lines for just about every hole. This may be in part due to the lack of trees as obstacles.
The course flowed pretty good. I had a guide who had played it many times, but the map was pretty good and the navigation was pretty easy to determine.
The fairways were pretty devoid of long weeds. This may explain my final con...
My favorite hole was hole 10, the shortest hole on the course, but the huge drop in elevation makes you have to use finesse when you're used to using brute force.
Cons:
With a rating of 3.63 at the time of this writing, and hearing a ton of hype about how amazing it is, I expected a lot more from this course. I was quite disappointed though.
To begin with, the tee pads are the worst I have ever played on. I've played nearly every course in Utah and the tee pads here are worse than the worst natural tee pads at Base Camp. The worst part is that these ones are new! They used to be just a log or something showing where to tee off from, now they are framed in and filled with uneven dirt with huge rocks. I've never feared for my knees more than on this one. Seriously, the tee pads knocked this course down a full point they were so bad.
The baskets aren't much better. Single chain, beat up old things with gaping holes in the basket big enough for your disc to fall out. Many of them were at odd angles and a couple of them are a good 5 inches short (from the top to the bottom of the cage).
Not a lot of variety in throws, strangely. Don't get me wrong, there are 2-3 uphill shots and a couple flat ground ones, but virtually every hole is the same thing: long shots with very little obstruction. There is literally not a single tunnel shot on the course. In fact, the only real time trees come into play is if you get off the fairway.
It is a disc eating course. There are rocks everywhere, and given the number of times you are throwing downhill your disc gets some speed going before slamming into them. For the first time I heard a disc's slapping sound as it hit a rock actually echo! The long downhills give plenty of opportunity to lose discs too.
Lack of tee signs. This was offset somewhat by a good map they provide though.
And last, (and certainly least), there were cow pies EVERYWHERE!
Other Thoughts:
It's very windy and is prone to quick weather changes. Wind mixed with big throws was not a great combo. Bring a jacket.
It is extremely high elevation, so be sure to bring sun block. There are also a ton of bugs. You can expect to get bit or stung by something before the day is out, so bug spray is also recommended.
Wear shoes with good traction. The terrain is very loose and it's an extremely long course.
Overall I think this was a good course, but not deserving of the high rating it has been given. It's not a course I will go out of my way to play again, at least not until they fix those horrific tee pads.
*PS I'll upload a picture of one of the new tee pads so all can see them in their glory. Just look for a picture titled New Tee Pad.
