Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee Your day will begin on a dogleg right par-4 (384 yards from the back tees and 252 from the forward)
From The Fairway that offers some challenging shots over water. From most of the tee boxes, you'll be firing over a creek to a generous but elevated fairway.
On The Green You can use driver but less club is prO-Bably better off the tee. To succeed on this hole, you need to land far enough along on the fairway to see where you're going next. Your approach shot takes you over a lake with a waterfall into a little bowl of a green.

Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee According to King, perhaps the best hole on the course is No. 5,
From The Fairway a par-3 (170 yards from the back and 108 from the forward) that drops 75 feet from tee to green. "No. 5 is the start of a group of ridge holes that offer great scenery," King said. "The green is surrounded by views of the Bow River and Bow Valley corridor." On No. 5,
On The Green you need an accurate shot to the green or you need to end up short, right in front of the green, which is flanked by large bunkers. Use a club that is about three clubs less than you might ordinarily play. Watch out when the wind blows, as it can catch your ball and carry it farther than you want to go.

Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee For the daring player with lots of length, No. 6 is a great temptation.
From The Fairway This great double dogleg par-5, playing at 550 yards from the back and 431 from the forward, is built along the side of a hill. "On the left side is a ravine that drops down toward the river," said King. "Right in front of green there's a ravine."

Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee No. 7, a dogleg right par-4 that plays 415
From The Fairway yards from the back tees and 339 from the forward, is a tricky test when you play first time. "If it's your first time on the course, it's hard to see the best way to play it," said King. "But after a couple times, you find the sweet spot to aim for. If you cut off enough of the fairway, it's an easy shot to green."

Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee The dramatic No. 12, a par-3 that measures 206
From The Fairway yards from the back and 123 from the forward requires a shot over a gully thick with fescue grass to what is a very shallow green, encircled by a sea of bunkers.
On The Green Take a little more club than usual to the tee. The hill behind the green acts as a backstop.

Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee The par-4 No. 13 (427 yards from the back tees and
From The Fairway 323 from the forward) can be played in straightforward fashion. Stay left of the fairway bunker on the right but not so left that you end up in the treacherous ravine on the left-hand side. Though the fairway is narrow, you prO-Bably can use a driver. If you hook or slice, lay back with a 3-wood.

Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee No. 16 (251 yards from the back and 166 from the forward) is clearly the signature hole on the course. In fact,
From The Fairway
On The Green Score Magazine awarded this hole a silver medal for being the best par-3 in Canada. There's a huge elevation drop from the tee box to green – a 130-foot drop. "This hole makes for the most spectacular photo on the course when you're in 16th tee box – you can see for miles. You can see the river."
Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee Another great view hole comes up on No. 17, a par-4 (360 yards from the back and 280 from the forward).
From The Fairway There are gorgeous views here of the mountains. In fact, you feel as if you're hitting right at the Rockies. "It's fairly short here," King said. "But it's similar to No. 15; the whole left side drops down again to river. There's a very narrow fairway. So lay back with a 3- or 5-wood off the tee."

From The Tee If you've had any trouble along the way, you might be able to improve your score on the par-5 No. 18,
From The Fairway playing at 535 yards from the back and 425 from the forward. As you hit back toward the clubhouse, you'll find it fairly easy to hit the green in two.
