Me and the family are heading across the U.S. on I-90, well halfway across anyway (Sturgis, SD), what are the "MUST PLAY" courses along the way?

The only area i know along that route is Spokane. If you need a quick stop there, High Bridge Park is a great course, and is pretty much right under I-90 as you are coming down the hill into Spokane. Downriver is a great course too, and I have hear 4 mounds is great, but they are much farther off of the hwy for a quick stop.

Diamond X is a pretty cool course because of the terrain and scenery.

I also enjoyed Post Falls in Idaho but its nothing spectacular - just nice holes along a beautiful river.

Must plays? Eh, maybe maybe not but I definitely enjoyed playing at both of them.

We played about 12 or so more courses on our way out here from Virginia and those two were the best that we played along the route you are headed. Further east is a different story with about a million must play courses

Must hit Blue Mountain in Missoula, Montana. Contact the Garden City Flyers, great bunch of folks. And I'm with Troz, High Bridge and Downriver in Spokane.

High Bridge is a greast course off of I-90. its right below the freeway. plus after about 4 hrs drive from Oly, it would be a good stop.

Yea, I've played the I-90 WA courses(Cle Ellum, Mosses Lake, Highbridge, Downriver, and Four Mound), so we will probably just bomb straight through to MT. Are Diamond X or Blue Mountain near the freeway? I am pretty stoked to play the courses in Rapid City, SD. Jackson Park sounds good, and Black Hills State University.
