Tough Winter

I like this track which I have played multiple times. It is interesting and challenging. However, being on the Palmer Divide, it is very much subject to weather, both on a daily and seasonal basis. As of 5/9/2018, it is in abominable condition. Apparently lack of snow cover caused severe die-off on much of the course.

I and my partners debated on whether to play but decided that after an hour drive it was better than nothing. The course did what it could to put pins in locations with green grass. The greens had been punched and not cut so the stimp was ~5 and very bumpy. There was generally enough green in the fairways to allow a decent lie if you rolled it about some.

Takeaway-do not play here until you have talked to someone you trust who has played within a few days.

Conditions Decline

The green and tee condition have fallen off badly since late spring. DC has always had some thin spots on the sloped portions of the greens but this has spread to much of the surface along with other damage. Same situation with the tees. Also some management issues like dry or non- working ball washers and tee blocks often placed on the wrong set of tees.
