The Approach Shot

British Columbia CN

Chateau Whistler Golf Club

Mountain resort

Chateau Whistler gives the trip its classic mountain-resort round. Robert Trent Jones Jr. opened it in 1993 on the side of Blackcomb Mountain, and the routing climbs through creeks, granite, Douglas fir, and enough elevation to make a cart feel like common sense rather than surrender. It is better when the group accepts it as a mountain experience rather than a pure architecture test.
