Solitude Mountain Resort, Utah. WHAT A PLACE! The ski lifts unfortunately only run on the weekends so we had to hike up to tee one. Nice little walk up to 9000 feet! But once you’ve reached the first hole, it's pure magic from there. Yes, you might lose a disc or two but hey. Worth it! Thanks to Jeff Spring for joining. He's the main guy behind the scenes of the pro tour and is responsible for a lot of the positive changes to the tour! What a guy!!

@@tilL_I_AM_Famous I tend to prefer picturesque courses, and courses that don't have a chance of crossing fairways or walking paths (so I will definitely visit this course). Fox Run Meadows is #1. Ed Headrick, Maple Hills, Harmony Bends, and Brewster Ridge are all after that. I should say that I haven't played courses in MI, but I'm fixing that later this month. Maine courses are rated highly, and so are FL courses, but they're both pretty much, seen one course, seen every regional course. Courses in the Appalachia areas are really scenic, but often poorly laid out.

Simons definitely my favorite pro disc golfer. He’s always so positive and always tells new and even experienced players to make sure to have fun with the game. It’s not all about earning money from playing. Also is very good at the sport might not be the best but still up there in the ranks and is always humble

This course reminds me of my childhood back in the late 60's and throughout the 70's. I grew up exploring the Apostle Islands on Lake Superior with my family [using a 26' cabin cruiser] when it was still mostly uncommercialized. The unspoiled views and total connection to nature was a large part of my childhood! Oh to breathe in that pure, aromatic and soothing air again!...It would be Bliss!

I think that would probably be an Aspen grove of trees you were walking through. Do yourself a favor and return to that course in late September/ early October when the Utah sky is deep blue and those Aspens are vivid yellow. You won't regret it ;-)

By far the longest airtime I've ever had. Took me quite awhile to hike down. I've also skied this resort many times and it is a great ski area too.

For anyone curious, you don't have to take the hike into the course. There is a chair lift that costs like $10, or they have season passes. Simon probably wanted to hike, or it wasn't operating yet. Also this course is insane, beautiful, cool in the summer, really difficult, and you'll lose a lot of discs if you're a scrub like me.

The disc golf course at Mount Crested Butte is named 10-3 because the first hole starts at 10,300". You take the ski lift up to the first hole and throw your way back down the mountain. I only took a few discs and lost them all on the way down, mostly in tall grass. On nice days the hang gliders are soaring high above. Sweet!
