Sixteen holes instead of eighteen. That alone makes this Phoenix muni an outlier. The routing loops back through Sonoran desert terrain with enough elevation shifts to keep your legs engaged without crushing them. Morning rounds move fast when you're not waiting on cart traffic. Afternoon heat makes walking a tougher sell, but the desert floor cools quickly at dusk. Green fees stay reasonable for the Phoenix market. Not a destination course, but local walkers have figured out something good here.
