shearing a large tee - yow! Clearing trees on the new #1 hole. These boys -- the Bahmers and their crew -- have some amazing toys: Shears and rotary blades and chippers. The non-timber trees (most of them) are being chipped and sent to a pulp mill for paper.

This is #1 fairway, with a wetland area in the middle. #1 is a par 5 that starts "behind" #7 Lakeside green, goes down through the valley and back on up the other side. The second shot will be pretty steep. On the right, in the valley, are the remains of bear pens.
