Copper Creek Golf Club ~ Copper Mountain, Colorado
18 hole regulation. Par 70

The Copper Creek Club – and everything else at Copper Mountain – is being revamped by the new owners (Intrawest, owner/developer of golf and ski resorts in Canada and the US). Intrawest doesn’t skimp on their projects – this one will cost them $500 million. If you haven’t been to Copper lately, your next visit will be a pleasant surprise.

The Copper Creek course is the highest championship course in North America. It was designed by Pete and Perry Dye, with more recent improvements by Jim Engh… and ongoing improvements by the Intrawest professionals. The course is set in a small valley so is smaller than most, so accuracy is the key here, more than distance. The valley is surrounded by high mountain peaks, snowcapped year round. The course includes pine forests, and historic reminders of its mining past.

Directions: 75 miles west of Denver. Take 1-70 to the Copper Mountain exit No. 195, 1^st right after the overpass takes you into the Copper Mountain Resort. Follow the signs to Copper Creek Golf Club.
