Let's finish up the back nine at Meadow Valleys with the last six holes today. And they are a pretty darn nice set, IMO.
The 13th is called "Chimney", a pretty good name for this dogleg-left par 4 with a very elevated approach shot to a plateau green.
Green tee view:
The green and flag were hard to detect in this lighting from the right rough, but it is sitting there on the flat, propped up area:
From short and right of the green:
This has better lighting, from over the green:
As nifty as that last short par 4 was, the 14th might be better.
Green tee view, where you tee off somewhat away from the river, but the green is up against the water on this dogleg-right (you might be able to detect the green way to the right):
Downhill approach shot view:
From just short of the green:
View from the next elevated tee:
You don't get much of a breather on this bunkerless par 3 15th.

View of the green from the 16th tee:
From right of the green, which slopes to the back from the middle part on:
The last par 5 awaits on the 16th.
Green tee view with a blind tee shot. My pic here probably is shifted too far to the right, but the big hitter might take this line:
Here's a look back to the tees from the big hitter's landing area; lots of room to play safe left off the tee:
Approach shot view (huge bunker right to be avoided):
From short of the green:
From over the green:
A par 3 awaits at the 17th:
Green tee view with one problematic tree to be negotiated:
There is this short grass area short and right of the green:
From the left edge of the green looking back, even the forward tee (92 yards) has a nerve-wracking shot in:
From over the green, where bail out area is present right:
The 18th takes you back to the clubhouse and a green that is shared with 18 of the river course; unless you are playing the forward tees, where there is a green short of the creek to play to.
View from the tips, a little tiny tee box that is very elevated:
View from the green tee, with both greens in view:
The forward tees play to this green:
Approach shot view for all others:

From left of the green you can see the flag for the 18th on the River course:
