Par and yardage are withheld for this course: the source scorecard failed validation, and a wrong number is worse than none. The official yardage above is the course’s own published number and is not affected.

Elevation
Drops 150 ft from its high point to its low: 777 ft down to 627 ft above sea level. Hole for hole, the 5th gives up 63 ft tee to green and the 13th climbs 35 ft.
Across the card the elevation is worth 52 yards less than the measured yardage.

Green slope
1st and 2nd greens, of 18 mapped here. The full set, every green, the medians and the lidar date, is made for the course itself.
Plays-like is a geometric adjustment and nothing more: one yard of playing distance per yard of tee-to-green elevation change, measured off public elevation data. It takes no account of wind, lie, temperature or how a falling ball stops, so it is not a club recommendation, and the green maps are surface gradient only, and they are not a read of the break. Mapped yardage totals 6,469 against the 6,618 on the card. Elevation: USGS 3DEP (3DEP-1m).
Ratings
Ratings are editorial estimates; difficulty is derived from course length and par where hole data is mapped, so it is withheld here alongside them.
