Makoshika State Park- Ponderosa Pines

Much more rugged than the other course, pretty much all tall grass. But man does this course have some serious potential, the hole designs are awesome and test a variety of shots. Plus this area of the park is debatably more scenic than the other course.

Great course design and beautiful piece of land to throw some plastic. Very hard and par is a great score on most of the holes.

Most holes are blind, many still blind or hard to see even after a half decent tee shot. It’s a good work out but not very memorable otherwise.

Not well maintained, almost every shot is blind.

PVC tee markers, no signage. Zero upkeep and horrible tee boxes. Pretty walk though. Lots of potential

Amazing course, all it needs is teepads and signage and I would rate this 5 stars. BIG shoutout to the creators of this course, they put in tons of work to make this enjoyable. It’s definitely fun and challenging, while also feeling totally different than the lower course. 👏🏻

Not for the faint hearted. Long par 4 shots with a couple short shots. Gorgeous course through the ponderosas at the top of the park. Long grass makes it hard to find discs on some throws, but definitely nice to have a pro-level course in the park.

Gorgeous, challenging courses with elevation and technical lines. I'd recommend it as a must play to anyone MA2+ going through the area. Took me about 2 hours to play. Having a spotter is clutch on several holes.

Stunning combination of courses. The pines will test you, and yes it helps to have a spotter but it's so worth it.

I may be a little bias. But I love this course. It makes you play so many shot types. Challenging with a ton of views of this beautiful state park.

I can't imagine how people play this course for fun.

Not a beginner friendly course. Very challenging. If you can’t consistently throw 300 - 400ft, this course is not for you. Bring your 12speed - 14speed discs and leave everything else at home.

Great course with beautiful scenery but you'd better bring good hiking shoes and your A game. VERY difficult.

@juddburman

Fun, challenging course in beautiful terrain. Bring your big arm!

The course is a serious hike. Bring 2L of water minimum and a few friends for spotting. Many holes are blind. Many spiny, cactus-y things to beat up the legs. It was a demanding and challenging play - a serious step up from the badlands course below. It took 3.5hrs to play a round with 8 experienced (~850-975 rated) players.

Fun course design with lots of elevation change and wooded holes. What's stopping this course from being great is a lack of signage/direction and clearly marked trails between holes. Highly recommend playing with someone to spot shots. Bring water like it's a hike. Enjoy the great views.

Very basic installation and design, but absolutely beautiful location. Overgrown grass and shrubs means it’ll probably cost a couple of discs to play here. With signage and maintenance it could be great, but when I played it was more or less just stakes and baskets on the side of a mountain.

Unplayable

This is an epic course on an amazing property! A true test of both endurance and skill. Because it’s a brand new design, there’s still plenty of work to be done with tee pads, signage, and general maintenance, but it’s got the potential to be one of the best courses in the area.

@thuslarro

Wow this place sucks. I lost 2 discs by the third hole, on what I felt were halfway decent shots. If you don't go here with a spotter, don't bother! Beautiful scenery though
