Below the horizon

It may not be on the horizon yet, but here is something below the horizon and in the future to look forward to.

With this one you get some of the world's best ice cream too.

:D

Garland,

Who is the designer?

Garland,

Is that on the coast?

There is a 2003 date on the map. Build 'em slow down there?

Bob

It's Tillamook, OR, and this course, like the Astoria/Skipanon project Slag talks always about and Pacific Gailes are not seeming to be getting off the ground.

I doubt the Gailes ever will.....

John Harbottle is the designer.  The course is about 4 - 5 miles inland from the ocean.  I've driven by the site on countless occasions, and it's pretty flat bottomland east of Hwy 101, just to the south of the old blimp hangers.  Been in planning for years, so it'll be interesting to see if it ever comes to fruition.

Oh, interesting, I love Juniper.

Boy, does that routing look bizarre, though.  It's very wide in places, and totally narrow in others.

Looks like some housing around

From what I have been able to gather from the web, it is being legally fought because the housing contradicts the farm land of the area using Oregon land use laws.
