This course built on mountainous terrain was the site of the Colorado Open for about thirty years The course has greens that are deceivingly difficult to read Several changes in elevation could cause uneven lies The rough is not severe but stray shots will find tree problems on most holes This is not a difficult course from tee to green but these tricky greens will even keep the pros from scoring too low Club personnel say that morning play is best because there are many afternoon thunderstorms There are sand bunkers protecting almost every hole except holes 9 and 18 Water hazards ponds come into play on holes 7 and 12 Golf Digest rated this as the 15th Best in State course for 1995 96 and the 9th best for 1997 98 Tee times are only reserved seven days in advance for weekdays
