The Quarry GC, Giants Ridge MN (Aug 2011)

The Quarry at Giants Ridge is a MN golf course with a style all its own. Dramatically raised tees and deep hazards forged from mine lands, wetlands, forests, and a former sand quarry challenge players to dig deeper, see farther, and risk more. Each hole is named for area mines, past and current -- from hole four, which commemorates the giant Mahoning mines that produced more than 130 million tons of iron, to hole 18, named for the Embarrass mine, which today, is a 550-foot deep mine-pit lake, the deepest on the Mesabi Iron Range.
