2016 Green Mountain Championships

2016 Green Mountain Championships

The final round of the Discraft Green Mountain Championships (GMC) went by quickly this morning as the top players from the Open and Open Women’s division took on Brewster Ridge here at beautiful Smuggler’s Notch in Vermont. This place is genuinely one of the best disc golf venues in the world. Finding anything to criticize is a nearly impossible task.

After the opening day in the tightly wooded course of Brewster Ridge, Discraft 2016 Green Mountain Championships switched gears and moved over to the Fox Hill course for round 2 on Friday. The two courses couldn’t be more opposite, as Fox Hill is a much more open and scenic mountain course, but there is one thing that holds true for both. They are both incredibly difficult and incredibly beautiful.

We’re one day into the Green Mountain Championships here at Smuggler’s Notch and it’s fair to say that this place has it all. On top of the two amazing disc golf courses involved, there’s also the fact that the event takes place at a one-stop-shop style resort. Truly a village in its own right, there isn’t much reason to leave the property once you arrive. And why would you want to?

Smuggler’s Notch is nestled into the mountain town of Cambridge, Vermont and is home to two amazing disc golf courses designed by Tournament Director Jeff Spring; Brewster Ridge and Fox Run. Both courses start in the same area, but they couldn’t be more difficult overall.
