Tom Bant sent out an email about how there were still feet of snow on the ground and that they might not get a course in until June...

Do y'all think there will be a tourney up there on June 18th?

It seems a weather thing...will it be known far enough in advance to plan on committing/cancelling. Not time, per se...Tom has a knack about planning work parties. :cool:

Do y'all think there will be a tourney up there on June 18th?



I hope so...I love playing Wrightwood...I'll play it no matter what the date is :cool:

Well......I love the Ski Sunrise course. I'll be doing some camping weekends to get ready for Flag whether there is a course or tournament or not. I still remember how to play object golf. :)

I'm going to drive out to Flagstaff at least once before worlds, plus play Wrightwood/Sunrise if Tom can pull it off.

From the SoCal website:

"Wrightwood *CANCELLED* May be rescheduled."

:( Hopefully, the latter! :(

I actually agree with slo :D

Your most cogent post ever! ;)

The Wrightwood tourney was cancelled because both properties: Mountain High and Sunrise are currently in escrow until at least the end of June. Once new owenrship has taken over, we will see which course is installed and plan accordingly.

I hope they close on escrow fast and get those poles in...I'll help with something /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

I think Ski Sunrise changes ownership every single year, and Tom Bant has to start every single season off by first convincing the new owners that disc golf is a good thing to have on a mountain.

How would you like to have to do that every year at your home course. Ugh,

Would I like to?...no Would I?...yes

So far he has managed to do it each year.

Nice

Thanks for the word...there appears to be room later in the schedule; 4 months between Waller and SoCal Finals, with only 3 events in between [2 for non-Masters].

good

Hope the new owners like Disc Golf .

He is still post whoring.

Following me around ?

I need to put my pizza in the oven and yes it is 11:18 here

What Kind of Pizza ?

Tombstone

Eating kinda late ?

it is like 11 :40 there

I have a couple more minutes !!!!!

haha

Cr ap the pizza is ready. :o:o

Way past my bedtime !!!!!!

You need a bedtime story?

What's you got ?

The little engine that could, Little red riding hood, peter pan, Playboy y'know the basics.

Hope the new owners like Disc Golf.

I think whomever controls the juridiction leases, that being Federal Forest, but amen to the sentiment. Seems like a roulette wheel up there; it would be nice to have some stability.

It'd be nice to have a course at altitude to practice at before Flagstaff.

...you may have to resort to objects, or those 'pic-a-nic baskets�'! [the cloth ones]. ;)

Sorry Rhett, even if both courses in Wrightwood were open, you wouldn't get a good idea of what you'll be facing in Flagstaff. Grass Valley would probably be the best example of the tight fairways you're going to see on three of the courses. Though that probably isn't any closer to you than Flagstaff. My advice is to go play hole 17 at Morley over and over, then when you get to Flagstaff throw less stable plastic.
BTW, I see you're going to the fling at Casitas. Bring gaiters and bright colored discs. :)

I'm going to Flagstaff this weekend if anyone is interested in Worlds practice.

Maybe slo would go with ya.

Would it be too late to get on the waiting list for worlds? I am not sure what the criteria to play in it.

BTW, I see you're going to the fling at Casitas. Bring gaiters and bright colored discs. :)



I've never played the Casitas course. What does your statement mean? Should I load up my bag wih stuff I won't mind losing? :confused:

As for Wrightwood, I am looking for altitude training. Playing the Tahoe tourney and getting to Flag early will probably have to do for that, though.

I've played Thorpe before, and I've played NAU in the snow. Is Little America like NAU, with little to no fairways?

That's not a misspelling of "Gator". Gaiters cover the sock/shoe nexus. Usually from snow, but also brush. Get those at R.E.I.

So what's the deal with Casitas? It's a hella long drive; I hope the course is not all tall grass.


OB OnTopic Content: Anybody been up to Wrightwood and have a snow report?

Tall grass, fox tails, stinging nettles, poison oak, water, lots of elevation change, blind shots, you name it. You probably won't want to throw discs that you can't afford to lose.
As for Little America, if it's set up the same as the 03 Worlds, it will be the tightest course that you play.

Hey Rhett , I may drive up to Wrightwood in a few days !!!!

I'll let you know what's up there !!!!! :D

It would appear the snow isn't below 8,000' on Mt. Baldy, to the East. But there's not always a clear view in the Basin. :o:(

I sure hope part of making the course permanent was/is mowing the fairways and clearing the gunk. :confused: We'll see on Saturday.

Then again, I may just be bitter because I lost 8 discs (including a 1st and a 2nd run valkyrie :() when I was there for World's Biggest. From what I understand, they aren't allowed to mow this time of year due to the fire hazard.

Bring in da Goats! :) :D

Recommended by experts. ;) Watch out where the Huskies go!

Waterproof as well ?

That's the mark of a good one! It's elastic on the ends, usually. The priceiest likely utilize 'goretex'waterproof/breathable fabric or whatever's similar these days. Mine are from '94 or so...was going to peak Shasta that "Summer".

Cool !!!! I'm going up to Wrightwood in a few days to check things out. Snow maybe ? A temp.course Maybe ?

I'll try tomorrow !!!!!!! Anyone interested in a Road Trip !!!! :eek:

Are you going to camp @ Tabletop; is that the idea?

Maybe Friday might be a better day for a Road Trip !!!!

Have Oceanside tomorrow !!!!

Back from Wrightwood.

The weather up there today was Excellent !!!!!!!!

A little snow at Mountain High's top , but nothing to write home about. Weather was Awesome though !!!!!!!!
Bright Sunshine at about 65-67 degrees !!!!!!
Not a cloud in the Sky !!!!!!!
Route 2 West to La Canada is still closed .
Something about trees down or something.

No baskets at either Mountain High or Ski Sunrise.

I did find a course though , by accident , at the Wrightwood Country Club. Members only , sign says.

Saw at least 12 permanent baskets , set up with tee signs !!!!!
May have 18 holes there. Looked like a mini Wrightwood course with lots of trees and elevation changes !!!!!!!!

Has anyone seen or played this course ?
I never heard about it before , just those 2 other courses. :eek:

Did I mention , Weather was totally perfect for Disc Golf !!!!! :D

Hey Slo , Have we heard any recent news on Wrightwood's courses ?

Donny

The latest word is that Sunrise will be back in the ground next summer.

Super news. :)

Donny

The latest word is that Sunrise will be back in the ground next summer.

:eek: :D

Very Cool !!!!! I like the Sunrise Mountain course.

Thanks for the Updated info !!!! :D

Just wondering, what about the 'other' course, the more-recently used one?

I don't think the "other" course - Mountain High - will be installed as the Sunrise course has 27 holes. There is not enough baskets to go around.

The Wrightwood tournament is scheduled for August 26 & 27, 2006. There is a chance that both courses will be used for the event.


:cool:

...so, is it the same caretaker for both areas?

Too bad there can't be a DG 'War' up there, with two 'Vendors' competing for ones' DG outlay...yes, I'm a Dreamer...

I don't have any facts to support this, but I have the impression: 27 Holes @ the Table Mountain course has roughly the same amount of "separation" as 2 x 18 on most SoCal courses. And, that if a Wrightwood-area event could utilize 45 [or more] targets, it could be a Major, or something. :cool:Being a Resort-area, they certainly have the Lodging!

Cool !!!!! Is it Free to the public or pay to play ?

It was $5/day, but that was years ago, with a different caretaker. The snow has to come/go before this all happens, too!

OK. The Air is really nice up there in the Spring and Fall.

Maybe sometime in March or April ?

Sunrise and Mountain High were both play to pay when they were in.

Discette, do you know if Tom Bant will be the Wrightwood 'lead' once again? If that's the case, I'm sure we'll all get the news [about help wanted installing the course] as-it-happens. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

I'll dig for disc golf.

Slo -

Tom is the man when it comes to courses on the Mountain.
Here's to hoping the snow melts early this year.

Ditto that...then I'll spread the word when Tom puts out his mailer. Ted Stryker is a past long-time Wrightwood resident, and has been talking about returning [to camp @ Table Mt.] anyways; hopefully we can get a sizeable workparty attending the grounds...thence. :cool:

OK ............how much do you think , per day ?

Like $ 2.00 or something ? How much is it to camp ?

It was 5$/day, but that was...2002, last time I did a 'day' round? There was a very small 'pro shop', but they DID have one....forget the name; they had their 'own' discs [a stamp] on DX Rhynos.

The Table Mt. camping was in the $14/site range; that was 2003-ish.

We're just going-to-have-to wait-out the snow, and see what the bear saw....over there.

Bears ? :eek:

Maybe we can send , San Diego's Eminem up there and he can scare the bear off with his Rap !!!!! :D

"The Bear went over the mountain..."

Yikes; you didn't recognize the school rhyme?!? :o:D"To see what he could see" is the kicker.

.....perhaps 'Diego's eminem' could scare any bears by shaking some rusty chains? http://themooneysuzuki.com/media/common/emoticons/punch.gif

Hey slow, I'm not rusty_chains, some guy from Texas is, check the IP...But yeah, I could scare off a bear pretty easily. I'd show him some of your and Donny's syntax.

...someone flatters you, then. http://themooneysuzuki.com/media/common/emoticons/punch.gif :D

Any word from Tom Bant on when Ski Sunrise (or should I say Mt High North) is going back in?

I'll do a road trip in a week or so and check it out.

Maybe SoCal Disc Golf has contacted Tom ?

The course is not in yet, and will not go in until it can be insured.

"It is not in yet, but some volunteers are going up the mountain this weekend to do work on theSurnise course. The course will only go in this year if a proper insurance policy can be found. Wish Tom luck.

:D

Get with the times people. It's all Mt. High now. Just hope that it's North and not West. :D

It will be the 27 hole course at Sunrise.

It will be the 27 hole course at Sunrise.


YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D:D:D:D

27 holes? Thats awesome! I was disappointed that National Deaf Disc Championship didnt play at Sunrise last summer of 2003, but played at very first inaugural Wrightwood (Mt. High) instead. I was rookie that time. Anyway, when will it open? During summer? Would love to play there as soon as possible when it opens.

The course will hopefully (keep fingers crossed) be open by Memorial Day Weekend.

:D

My fingers are crossed and it's Memorial Day Weekend. Do I need to wiggle my ears, or click my heels three times? :D

Tom sent an email last week asking for folks to purchase season passes in an effort to raise the $1000 for the insurance policy. I have not heard if he was successful in raising the funds.

Is the course available for play yet ?

Hopefully next weekend. I promise to post here as soon as it is playable.

Thanks........................I'd like to play up there before it gets to hot.

Is it playable? :)

I'm looking for a reason to go camping up there.

How long will the course be settling up after approval by escrow by end of June? Think it will be done before 4th of July? Would be nice to camp out and play there on Independence Day :D Hope the new ownership will install at Ski Sunrise instead of Mountain High. If not, then Mountain High will do! :cool:

Tan -

The course is currently scheduled to go in on June 17th. If everything goes as planned, you should be able to camp on 4th of July weekend.

This year the 27 hole course will be installed at Ski Sunrise.

You might try reading the posts from this year before posting. Just a suggestion. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Sorry, my bad! Id better read it before I post.I just am looking fwd to play at Ski Sunrise or Mountain High this summer /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Thanks, Suzette, for the information! So, my friends and I can camp out there on 4th of July. Something different on ID4! Anyone who wanna come, play, campout and celebration our ID4 the come on over!

Tan, I might come up and kick it with you guys for the fourth of July weekend.

That's great news. Any possibility of a sanctioned tournament up there this year ?

Yes. Aug 26 & 27. See you there.

all righty, dave! i ll keep you post via pms. am trying to find a ph nbr of campground at either mountain high or ski sunrise.

stay cool til then,

Tan, I might come up and kick it with you guys for the fourth of July weekend.

I might be able to be coaxed into a 4th of July trip up there. I haven't played the course yet.

thats great! wud be fun to play with you guys at mountain.

"The course is currently scheduled to go in on June 17th"

That's this weekend !!!! :D

Sounds like someone's tallying their poultry prior to completion of gestation. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Fingers crossed.

The silence in here is deafening. :(

I'm gonna be up there in 2 weeks...Hopefully the course is ready to play!

I'll go check it out.

Wrightwood (Sunrise) is mostly in now. We hope to complete it this weekend. Five more sleeves (out of 27) need to be dug. Tees need to be regraded from erosion.

Here is a copy of Tom's email announcement:


Hello my friends,

I am ecstatic to announce that the 27 hole disc golf course at Sunrise, in Wrightwood is mostly in the ground. We still need to set up the pro shop, dig 5 sleeves and reclaim most of the tees from four years of erosion, BUT TELL EVERYONE, CALIFORNIA'S BEST COURSE IS BACK!!!
This weekend you are most welcome to come up and help Ron, Dave and I finish putting the course in. We'll provide beer water, and pizza.
Please bring shovels, racks and hoes. AND YOUR DISCS.
At first the course will only be available for play on the weekends, we hope to add more days soon.. We are scheduled to host a SoCal Pro/Am tourney at the end of August. I will get you all a schedule of whatever other events we can squeeze in before we pull the course in October.
Now that Mt High owns Sunrise the course will remain there, and we'll work to start earlier and extend the seasons in years to come.
SUNRISE IS OPEN BABY!

dave v. and i are planning on being up there saturday july 1 and sunday july 2. we're trying to get as big a crew as possible to play sunrise and camp that weekend. we've got some people interested but more the merrier for **** sure. whos up for it? dave's got the details...

Hey, let's all go up to Wrightwood to camp, play, and help with anything that needs to be done with the course. There are campsites still available today, but they are dwindling fast. Send me a PM or reply here if you want to come up. This course is awesome and the mountains are always a fun place to play disc golf. Elevation is around 7,000' at the course.

I have access to adjacent capsites so it can be a huge party at night with disc golf during the day! The cost is very minimal, around $20 per site, so just a couple bucks per person. 6|9 needs a vacation...Let's mob up there.

I would but I dont like Dave Vincent.

I'll tie you up and let the bears get you then.

I have a double-campsite reserved for 1 night, Sat 7/1, for me and the first 10 people who send me a PM, or reply on this thread saying that they are going. We are rollin up Saturday afternoon, and coming back Sunday evening. Only 3 cars per site, so let's try to carpool. Cost is $45 divided by the number of people who stay with us.

I will be ready to work/play/eat at 8am Wrightwood time.....
Peace, Bud

I just got back from the work day today. We finished digging and pouring concrete for the last four pins (practice pin still not ready) The small but dedicated crew finished leveling and installing the rest of the tee pads as well. The pins for the remaining holes should be installed sometime tomorrow once the concrete has set.

I only had a chance to play/walk the front nine, and it was very sweet. Can't wait to go back up and play all 27.

I'm a possible, if semi-geezers are invited. I can bring the Tequila...

You need a membership or friend/of to gain access to the course here. So that is what 'private' means. Of course because its a country club. Later

The course I am referring to is known as Sunrise. Now that ownership has changed, the course technically Mountain High North. The new owners have agreed to keep the original course name. From now on it will be known as Sunrise Disc Golf Course at Mountain High North. It is currently open on the weekends for a small fee. Directions from Wrightwood: continue on Highway 2 and turn right on Table Mountain Road (Follow signs to Mountain High North) Proceed to lodge parking lot. Hole one is on the left. Not sure about the fee, but I think it is $5.00. It is definitely worth it, especially when it is over 100 degrees in the IE.

I will make sure the PDGA course directory gets updated with this information.

I am preparing PDGA sanctioning and tournament flyer for the So Cal tour event on August 26th & 27th. Watch for it on the website soon.

Golf carts ,and fully stocked bar, will beat the heat.We will bring drinks to you, on your hole....... ;)

The Sunrise course is one of the best in SoCal. I'm stoked that it is finally open again.

Scot said he would do it if he gets an early ride. Which brings me to my next point; we need to carpool as much as possible, there are only 3 cars allowed, aside from mine. PM me if you are interested, and I'll give you the confirmation number and site number.

new layout? i try to remember what it looks like.

This was sent by Tom Bant...


<font color="red">Hello my friends,

Sunrise Disc Golf at Mt High North is in, playable and it is so beautiful! Thank you Jerry Davis, Tim Cook, Dave Meyer, Ron and Jeff Brawley, that guy Art, Suzzette Simmons, Rob Wilson and Dave Dunipace for so much help last weekend. There are a few details left to fix but by the end of Sunday about 20 people had come up and played on a course that has been wild forest for three years. This weekend Sunrise will be officially open. On Sunday we will run the first of four monthlies we'll hold this season. We'll start at 10:00am and play one round of 27.Come on up and see if you can come close to Dave Dunipace's 27 hole course record of 17 under. Be advised that highway 138 will be closed from Beekley to highway 2. Any of you guys coming from Las Vegas or the High Desert should come over the Cajon Pass on 15 and get off at 138 to Highway 2 West. Also highway 2 is closed at Vincent Gap until 2007 so you can't come that way from Oak Grove.
</font>



If you can't read a whole paragraph, there is a monthly this Sunday!!!

Shweet!

1 more email from Tom...


Hey Dave,
The campground is adjacent to the course, in fact you can play to hole four from some of the sites. Come on up, you are going to dig it. The monthly is $20 to enter. You can sign up for the monthly and play all weekend for that. Or you can pay $7.00 for the whole weekend if you don't want to play the monthly or $5.00 per day. Or you can buy a season pass for $20 and play all season. Lookin forward to seeing you, wait till you play this course,it may be the best course you have ever seen.

I have secured room for 15 people now, 4 more spots are open, and I can get a parking pass for 1 more vehicle. Mention this ad, and you'll receive a spot for your tent in the inner ring, rather than the bear infested outer ring.

Thanks to the guys in Burbank for a few more pics. If you are on the fence still, after looking at these you shouldn't. See you mugs tomorrow...

Ah , your number 8 on the list. I have to adjust my bag a bit for that course. Hope to see you on Sunday.

Remind me to bring plenty of water too !!!!

Donny bring water!

Thanks to whomever added to update for directions to Sunrise on the PDGA website,(Suzette?) very helpful. Felt like im the only one who doesnt know where the course is. Hope to make it there soon. :D

This weekend was awesome. Make sure you all get a chance to go up to Sunrise. Camping and playing disc up there was a great time. Everyone that went can't wait to do it again. Nice work G NATION, he really kicked some butt today at the monthly. 13 down.

This weekend was definitely fun. I will be reserving the same spot for the August Monthly, let me know now, if you plan on going. The course was awesome, nice shooting Gwillim.

Thanks guys! The course is a Lefty Paradise! I counted out that I had a putt within 35' on 22 of the 27 holes! Fun stuff. Also this was my first win playing Pro in a tournament and beating Wisecup by 4 strokes made it even sweeter! :)

Can't wait for the sanctioned event in August!

DVince, have you made reservations for August 5th yet? Not sure how far in advance we want to get that taken care of, the earlier the better probably.

Are you and your folks playing the Sunrise tournament ?

Is a two-rounder [!!], which was scheduled for THIS coming weekend, yet was moved, to not conflict with Riverside....that's a nice gesture.

However, the new date on the Flyer says the 7th. I'm expecting that to change >>>14th, which jibes better with the Cages Moving Day. To WHERE they move, is another Story.

I'd prefer it a week later on the 14th.

Is there going to be a tourney at Wrightwood before the socal tourney?

Please confirm the date in order to promote it during Riverside this weekend.

Thanks,
FA

It's this weekend !!!!!

October 7th , 2006.............................

Has anyone heard from Tom yet? If this tournament gets added to the schedule, make sure to thank Mr. Bant, he is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet...

So, is the course open with the fresh snow this weekend?

Time for a Summer Ice Bowl!

Wrightwood is officially open!

Message from Tom Bant:


Hello my friends,

I am very happy to tell you that Sunrise Disc Golf Course at Mt High
North in Wrightwood is open for the 2008 season. In fact Sunday June
1st is our first monthly.



Who's gonna roll?

Is the course open for practice on Friday Aug. 1st? I noticed on the Mt High web site that the course is only open on Saturdays &amp; Sundays. I'm going up on Friday and camping. I was hoping to get in some high altitude practice.

Mike

The course will be open for practice on Friday.

Got to play a nice peaceful morning round on Saturday.
Hole 1 is tougher now and 10 is easier, huh.
Watch out for ant holes especially around hole 1. I put my
bag down on one and they were mad and wanted a ride along.
:mad:

Are we playing 18 or 27 holes for doubles on Friday?

I don't know how many holes will be played in the "Bring Your Own Partner Doubles". This is a side event being run by Tom Bant. I would imagine that since it starts at 6:00pm, it will probably only be 18 holes. I am not sure there would be enough time to play 27 before it gets too dark to play.

That's what I was thinking...No worries, it will be fun either way...

Suzette,

Will the Champ Destroyers and XCalibers with the Sunrise 2008 stamp be available at the event? I saw them yesterday on Discgolfvalues.com but figured I would just pick one up at the event if they are going to be there.

Yes the Champion Destroyers and XCalibers will be at the event along with some custom stamped Star Ontario Rocs, Champion Monarchs and Aviars.

I think we have a great hotstamp this year.

Definitely Wall-Worthy!

Suzette,

Will there be a raffle this year? If so I'll send Jr. up with some raffle ticket money for me. I can't make it this year - conference for work (plus I'm too gimpy right now).

Have fun all you Mountain High-ers. Great course, great tri-tip on Saturday and camaraderie around the campfire!

Yes there will be another awesome raffle this year.

Donations always welcome.

I'm looking for a volunteer with a great sound system in their vehicle to provide some musical entertainment for the player party. There is no electricity at the BBQ site and I don't want to lug the generator up the mountain.

Pass the word.



Did I mention FREE BEER? There will be free soft drinks as well.

No live band??? Awwww... :(

No free beer for you, junior...

No free beer for you, junior...



Yup, that's right.
