Playing Tips

The tree-lined front nine rewards accuracy off the tee—favor positioning over maximum distance to avoid trouble from tight landing areas.

The back nine opens into rolling, natural terrain with noticeable elevation changes, so carefully adjust club selection for uphill and downhill approach shots.

At over 7,000 yards the course is long, so manage your tee strategy and consider laying up on riskier holes rather than always going for length.

Bentgrass greens are well maintained and react crisply to properly struck approach shots, so aim to hit the correct side of the green and expect medium-to-fast speeds on firm days.

Because the course is at higher elevation, wind can be variable and gusty—particularly on exposed holes—so check conditions and factor wind into every club choice.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

The course sits in a cool, mountainous area so temperatures can swing widely between morning and afternoon, summer can bring sudden thunderstorms, and exposed holes on the back nine can be subject to variable, gusty winds; winters are cold with heavy snow.

Best Season to Play

Late spring through early autumn (May–October) is best for clear mountain views and firm, playable conditions, while winters bring heavy snow and course closures.
