I really don't get it. 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 25, 2013 Played the course:once

Pros:

Aesthetic-- plays up and then down a BIG ski mountain. criss crosses several trails, both hiking and mountain bikes. keep your eyes out for other people.

Baskets-- DisCatchers. All there, some were massively rusty at the top of mountain. Some were bent.

Routing and Navigation-- not too bad. tons of signs to guide the way.

Teesigns-- not too bad. gave honest distances and "plays like" distances.

Cons:

Design- I thought that #2 was a brilliant hole, but everything else here is awful. #1 is borning, #3,4, 5 play UP two tracks with massive roll away potential everywhere. #6 plays across the top of the mountain with huge sweeping panoramic views. these were appreciated as the walk up there was one of the most miserible things I've ever done. #7 again plays down a GD two track. #8 and #9 are quite possibly the worst holes here. #8 is 900 feet around a corner and down a ski hill. Keep your eye on your disc. #9 (where to begin) 1200' of (plays like 1200') down a gentle slope and into a wide open field. no challenge. just huck it and hope for the best.

Teepads-- there is a ton of sand here and I thought the rubber teepads would be slick. they were not, but they were rubber.. I hate rubber teepads

I really should have read the rest of the reviews a bit more.

Other Thoughts:

there are honestly some good holes here but there are more honestly horrible holes here that destroy any hope of an enjoyable round.
