Hole #15 @ Boulder Pass is a 364 yard dogleg left par 4. This short par 4 is a scoring hole but you can get in trouble off the tee. The tree lined fairway keeps you honest with your drive and the landing area is protected with a large bunker on the right and a myriad of small bunkers on the left that seem to attract many tee shots. Your approach will be a wedge, often a sand wedge to a tricky green with bunker protection front and right. You also have "The Creek" behind the green but it should never come into play. Quite a few birdies here and some disappointment as well.

Hole #16 at Boulder Pass is a 215 yard par 3. Off the tee you're 25 feet above the green that's protected on the left side by two bunkers catching errant drives short or long. Short or right you have a large pond so accuracy is a must. The key here is to stick the green which can be a challenge so par is good.

It does take a good shot Brad. It's also the #1 handicap on the course.
