Mt. Massive Golf Course, Leadville

The course has all of the ammenities of a typical small public course. The clubhouse is a simple snack bar and pro shop. The difference is that most public courses don't have the natural beauty and terrain of the Rockies. Remember that you're playing at around 2 miles above sea level so even the most average golfers can feel a bit like Tiger Woods if you can hit it straight. The rough is ROUGH, often rocks or thick pine forest, so take an expendable club if you golf like I do and will need to play that lie. It's exceptionally dry at that elevation, so the grass is often dried out and very fast. The course is sometimes challenging because of the natural terrain, and it's a great value for the experience. This is no frills golfing in one of the most beautiful places on Earth.
