Short technical course with a lot of trees and hazards. Frustrating because there a few defined fairways and a lot of luck is required to score on this course. Also, Basket #1 and #3 are the same basket, so you need to know if another group is putting before you throw.
On the good side, folks were friendly and the RAG story is touching. I might actually like this course if I could develop muscle memory for all of the throws. 4 rounds was not enough to do that, and good fundamental throws were not rewarded.

Recent mods to the course have move the baskets away from overhanging branches. It does shorten some of the holes quite a bit, but there is less congestion and tee pads are far enough away for safety. Trees, mature trees still challenge and you will need to shape your shots. Good course.

This course has a lot of potential for course cut out of the side of a ski hill. However, there is snow fence still standing on hole #3 and some trees have grown out into the fairways blocking the intended path to the baskets. For this course to meet it's potential, Three Rivers needs to maintain the integrity of the course, which is what I thought our annual disc golf fees were meant to do.

Since I was there last year the parks department has put a drainage basin between the first and last baskets. Along with the landscaping the left the ground uncovered and now it is a complete quagmire. Now you have to contend with mud and water. I am concerned they will close these two baskets in the spring so they can do more stupid manipulation. Municipal authorities need to start respecting one of the fastest growing sports and partner with local disc golf clubs on these land changes. Hansen is a unique disc golfing experience with the retro baskets and the challenging outlay.
