Course
Description
Golfing
and a river Trip on the
Colorado River
Surrounded by red rock buttes and spires, the sparkling blue waters
of Lake Powell and the fairways' lush grass, you won't need to break
100 to enjoy
one of the finest courses in the Southwest. PGA
certified instructors will hone your skills (driving, irons, putting
and chipping) as you participate in
three small group instructional lessons. Includes three days of golf
(36 holes) with cart and fun golf scramble. The course is
challenging, yet great for beginners as well. Put yourself in the
photo above or on the tee of hole # 14, where your tee shot descends
a 500' cliff before reaching the green below. You have to play
this course! And don't forget your camera! When not golfing, enjoy a 15 mile smooth water raft
adventure on the Colorado River. Discover 800 year old petroglyphs
(rock art) etched into the canyon walls and visit Lee's Ferry,
starting point for Grand Canyon raft trips. From Native culture to
the early pioneers, discover the region's unfolding story.
