Millstream in St. Peter, Hidden Lake in St. Augusta, and Riverside would all be worth the drive to St. Cloud.
My next question. We plan on playing from sun up to sun down for 3 days (Thursday, Friday, Saturday).
Would it be worth driving to St. Cloud and spending a day in that area over some of the MN/St Paul courses?
I would personally skip Crown and Lions for a trip to St. Cloud. Neither of those courses really do it for me, and you will end up with a lot of driving either way.
I suggest trying to get to red oak in burnsville.
I'd do this.The drive time for crown - lions - hyland - bryant - elm is about 1 hour 45 min. The drive time for millstream - cavalry - riverside - elm - bryant - hyland is just over 2 hours. For 20 minutes of extra drive time you get an extra course. Sounds like a winner to me :thmbup: (assuming you can fit 6 courses and 2 hours of drive time into daylight)
Lions is forgettable at best.

That's a better line up of courses (it's also a **** load of disc golf) but the drive time will be substantially more than that when you consider you also have an hour+ long ride back from St. Cloud after you finish up there.
The drive is a little under an hour from cloud to elm creek, go down 169 to bryant, play hyland, stay in Minneapolis for the night. I'm assuming that they start their day from a hotel in Cloud. I'm thinking 6 rounds with 3 people would be a little much for one day though, especially with hyland being in the mix. Hey OP, how long does a regular round take you and your buds?
I'm also going the trip with 19325. Here is a proposed schedule. Let us know if this seems unrealistic or if there is any reason we should avoid any of these courses on specific days. Also, how are the mosquitos up there this summer?
