The Approach Shot

Colorado Springs

Garden of the Gods / Kissing Camels

Scenic private/resort golf

Kissing Camels is more about setting and access than pure architecture. The red-rock and mountain backdrop is excellent, the facility is private/resort-oriented, and it works best as a polished supporting round for groups staying there or able to secure access.
