Stewart Creek:
Other highlights on the front side include the ninth, another par-4 where a parachute could come in handy. At about 230 yards from the tee, the fairway simply vanishes. Golfers are forced to layup - or donate a ball to the whisky-jacks and marmots that make their home on the rocky ledge. From the fairway, it's another mouth-watering vista and another nervy mid-iron to a green protected by two massive water features - one on either side of the green. Can you say "glory hole?"


Da Bearsss:

The Grizzy Bear (Ursus arctos horribilis), also known as the Silvertip Bear, is a subspecies of brown bear (Ursus arctos) that lives in the uplands of western North America. Compared to other North American brown bear subspecies, a grizzly has a silver tipped pelt. Male Grizzlies can reach and stand 10 ft tall on their hind legs.

(Did you notice the difference in scientific name between the brown bear and grizzly bear? --- horribilis ... take that for what you will ... I personally don't like the sound of it)
