Cielo Vista Municipal Golf Course
The golf : Formally known as Del Norde Country Club,
this basic, flat course has long been known as the easiest course in El
Paso. This short layout features wide-open fairways, large bent-grass
greens, and minimal bunkering and water hazards. Yet there are a few spots
where scores can add up, as many of the fairways dogleg, and more than
a few approaches offer minimal views of the green because of the trees
that have been added over the years.
In terms of notable holes, the signature is the 435-yard par 4 No. 2,
tough because of its length and approach into a narrow, multi-level green.
Be ready for No. 11, a 575-yard par 5 that features a long dogleg left
with loads of trouble along that side. Big hitters might be able to cut
the corner on this hole. No. 18 features a lake in the corner of the dogleg
left that impacts both the tee shot and approach on this 380-yard hole.
