The Cascade Golfer Dream 18

Gold Mountain (Olympic)
No. 18 Par 4 271 yards (Blue)

Of course, you’ll have to miss the pond that runs down the right side, bunkers short and left, and O.B. beyond the putting surface … but after four hours soaking in one of Washington’s most thrilling playing experiences, we always find ourselves feeling inspired for greatness. — B.B.
