Caddie's Summary:     WOW. It is that simple. WOW. Imagine playing in a remote and exotic country. Now surround yourself with ice-capped mountain views. Now picture a huge valley cut from the earth. In the center of the valley a pristine, blue/green river flows roughly through. Now place the coolest golf course you've ever seen etched into the landscape. You are at the Himalayan Golf Club in Pokhara, NEPAL. The hotel and lodging is years (with good economy) from being finished, and I blew out my motorcycle rim and tire getting to the place, but it is all very well worth it. Possibly, the most unique golf course in the world, the Himalayan stretches along side the Bihaypure River and all elements are kept natural. The only drawback the course has is the barbed-wire fences around the greens, but you'll learn to accept them as you navigate around water buffalo and grazing cattle. We have photos from our scouting trip (August) as well as some January photos supplied by the course (low image quality but amazing scenes). Rainy season, monsoon, ends by October and the skies usually clear at that time, allowing hte most breath-taking scenery imaginable. Enjoy the views.
