Greywolf Golf Course Hole #7 "Prospector's" 418-yd Par4 Handicap 5
A long right to left tee shot sets up the best approach to this undulating peninsula shaped green. A high left to right approach shot is ideal and do your best not to finish long or left of the green.
Greywolf GC:

Greywolf fits comfortably into my "Top 5 Resort Course" list within the prestigious ranks of Bandon Dunes and Pebble Beach. Surprised? Go see for yourself. – Worldgolf.com writer
Ha Ling Peak:
You can see Ha Ling Peak from the Trans Canada Highway, as you approach Canmore. It recently has been the subject of much controversy, as it was once named Chinaman's Peak.Originally called "The Beehive", it became Chinaman's Peak in 1896, when a cook named Ha Ling climbed the peak for a bet of $50.00. Ha Ling was a cook at the Okaloosa Hotel in Canmore, and took up a challenge that he couldn't go up and down the mountain in 10 hours. He started one Saturday morning at 7:00 am, and was back in time for lunch. Because no one would believe him, he took a group of doubters up the next day, and there, flapping in the breeze, was a small flag he had planted the day before. It was then proudly announced, "As the peak has no name, let it henceforth be called Ha Ling Peak in honour of his daring intrepidity". Unfortunately, many people reverted to "Chinaman's Peak", and was known as such until quite recently, when under political correctness, it started be referred to by it's rightful name.
