The Quarry Hole

We have holes with river dunes, we have uphill, downhill, sidehill, river, flat (rolling), forest, wetland holes, and we have a quarry hole. Part of the quarry was excavated long before we got here, and the remainder will be ripped out in the coming months. The banks ripped into all manner of ridges and plateaus as we go along. We are going to make a cut of about 300 meters (330 yards), by 100 meters (110 yards) by 2 meters deep (2 yards). The material will be used for elevating a couple fairways, and for building the subgrade of tees and greens.




























The old quarry; about 120 meters long. A new section will connect to it. With the exception of the tees and green, the 485 meter 12th will run through them. The ragged nature of the walls will be duplicated in the new quarry.
