Mt. Hood Foxglove One Most Interesting Hole
Thursday, December 14, 2017
The Oregon Golf Association recently added the Foxglove fairway hole number one as one of the most interesting holes of Oregon gold courses. The course, located in Welches at the Resort at the Mountain, is one of three including Pinecone and Thistle.
The tee box sits facing West with the scenic Salmon River which wraps around on the left of the fairway, a steep hill on the right, and smack dab in the middle a monolithic boulder spit from Mt. Hood's eruption in the late 1700's. It's always a challenge for golfers to get over it, let alone around it!
The Mountain View Golf Course just down the road in Boring also made the list with hole number twelve, a par three, shooting high above a majorly steep canyon to the green below.
I particularly enjoy a drink and a bite after golfing at Mountain View at the Leaderboard Restaurant where you can sit out side and take in a picture perfect view of Mt. Hood while watching golfers teeing off on the first hole.
Speaking of golf courses, if you are looking for a home or Condo around the Resort at the Mountain, here is the place to find one:
