The Club at Glacier
Durango, CO — The Club at Glacier, nestled at 7,400 feet within the majestic San Juan Range in Durango, Colorado, offers two distinct and award-winning golf experiences: the Mountain Course and the Valley Course. The Mountain Course, a collaboration between Todd Schoeder and three-time U.S. Open Champion Hale Irwin, embodies a design philosophy that embraces the dramatic topography and extraordinary rock formations of the landscape, presenting a challenging yet visually stunning round. Its signature holes, like the opening 'Fairway to Heaven' (Hole 1, Par 4), are set against panoramic mountain vistas that elevate the entire game. The Valley Course, originally conceived by renowned architect Arthur Hills in 1976, has been thoughtfully modernized to feature new bunkering, strategic hazards, and fast, undulating greens. Golfers navigating the Valley Course will encounter significant elevation changes and challenging doglegs, all framed by the breathtaking mountain scenery. Both courses are celebrated for their strategic playing options and the immersive experience of playing amidst exposed cliffs, streams, meadows, and abundant wildlife. The Glacier Club provides an unparalleled mountain golf sanctuary, making it a truly memorable destination for any golfer seeking a challenging and picturesque round in Southwest Colorado.

Designed by renowned architect Ken Dye, the 18-hole, par-72 course, opened in 1993, winds its way along the Animas River. Dye's design philosophy here transformed a former alfalfa field into a demanding yet rewarding layout, emphasizing strategic play amidst the dramatic mountain vistas.

The course is celebrated for its natural beauty and its integration with the surrounding landscape, offering a secluded and peaceful round. Despite occasional irrigation projects, Dalton Ranch remains a highly regarded course in Colorado, providing a memorable blend of community, connection, and the timeless spirit of the West.

Fossil Trace Golf Club in Golden, Colorado, stands as a testament to architect Jim Engh's bold and imaginative design philosophy, seamlessly blending prehistoric history with modern golf. Opened in 2003, this public-access gem is carved into a dramatic landscape featuring massive triceratops footprints and remnants of a coal mine, creating an utterly unique visual and strategic experience. Engh’s signature "muscle bunkers" and undulating fairways demand thoughtful shot-making, while the elevation changes offer breathtaking views of the surrounding foothills. The course truly shines with its memorable features. The par-5 12th, known as "The Triceratops," plays through a natural amphitheater where actual dinosaur tracks are visible, offering an unforgettable encounter with ancient history. The par-3 15th, "The Coal Mine," requires a precise shot over a deep chasm with old mining equipment serving as a backdrop.
