Fossil Trace Golf Course, Golden Colorado

 

fossil traceFossil Trace golf course has stunning views from every hole and is a heck of a challenging course to play.  I played this course earlier this year with my golfing group and it was a blast.

 

golfTheir motto is “64 Million Years in the Making” because Triceratop foot prints and other fossils can be found adjacent to the 12th green.  The clubhouse has lots of information about the fossils and they even have a statue of the skeleton of a Triceratop.

The course was designed by James Engh and opened in 2003.  It is definitely a great day when you can spend the day on the golf course in Colorado and enjoy the views and prehistoric history that comes with this course.  I give this course 5 out of 5 stars.

Hey Will This was a pretty place.  Glad we stopped there yesterday.  I know you were bummed that you didn't have your clubs with you. The grounds are so nicely kept - even the furry friends thought so.

Will..  I don't play golf.. but if I did, or wanted to, I'd like to try this course.  I would find the history that goes along with it fasinating too.
