Goin on Umphrey's Ter: Salt Lake, Bozeman, Missoula, Seattle, Eugene & Tahoe

[diskey river]

Haven't done an UM run in about 5 years and am super overdue for a vacay.

Need help with what courses to play in or around:

- Salt Lake City, UT
- Bozeman, MT
- Missoula, MT
- Seattle, WA (or anywhere fun in between the last 2)
- Eugene, OR
- Tahoe, CA

Will be in middle to late March.

Played a few courses in the Tahoe area, more specifically Trukee, but otherwise know nothing of what to play in these areas, and of course I can see whats available and read reviews .... just thought maybe a few of you have some good recommendations

thanks in advance

Course Recommendations are in order of preference

SLC - (Solitude won't be playable in March) Creekside, River Park, Art Dye
Bozeman - Bohart x 2 (I don't know how the conditions might be in March, look into it), Drive to Diamond-X if possible
Zootown - Blue Mt, Pattee
From Missoula to Seattle - Many options well worth checking out - Farragut or Four Mound, Highbridge and Downriver.
Seattle - My favorite area was the Olympic peninsula if you can make it out there, otherwise - Seatac and lakewood make a good pairing, Terrace and White River are nice.
Eugene - Dexter and North Regional are both great courses
Tahoe - is anything playable in March? might ask around on that one, my favorite Kirkwood definitely won't be, the remaining are all great courses, can't go wrong.

How long between Eugene and Tahoe? Is it the next day, or do you have a day or 2 to take the road less traveled?

Tahoe - Turtle Rock should be playable, Bijou and Zephyr are a maybe. They are in the ground year round, but whether you want to play them depends on how much snow there is on the ground and how much you like trudging around in it. Dayton will be playable, but don't go out of your way if the others are good to go.

Humboldt. It'll be a bit out of the way, but you can golf some of the most unique courses in the country. There's the Redwood Curtain, My home course. As well as Birds Of Paradise an amazing course and Martin D's #1 out of more than 1000 courses played.

Hey, fun tour!

Definitely play Whistlers Bend in Southern Oregon. A wonderfully beautiful course.

Dexter in Eugene is great.

I played the course at Humboldt in the Redwoods..it was tough to navigate if you've never been. I wasn't super impressed with the course but its definitely cool to play in the big trees!

Have fun!
