Know the rules for everyone’s benefit.

The course was pretty wet, I lost 3 balls in the fringe of the fairways. Maybe it was also a consequence of the long grass, but because of the wettest it couldn’t be mowed.
My biggest issue was a foursome that was glacial slow and didn’t care I was behind them. They were not young and should know they are to suppose to keep up with the group ahead of them. There was nobody within sight of these gentlemen. A marshal would have helped this situation.

Muddy

Don’t expect grassy fairways in this mud bath. Conditions were pretty poor here on a dry day after a week of no rainfall. You’ll definitely have to lift/clean/attempt to place your ball on the very minimal patches of grass on fairways. This was a challenge for all 18 holes. Probably won’t return, but at least I tried it and played the second oldest municipal in Portland.

NW golf

I expected squishy conditions with pacific northwest golf courses, especially after really rainy storms, and that's what I got. Didn't lose a ball!
