Crocus Bluff Disc Golf Course

Crocus Bluff Disc Golf Course - Dawson City, Yukon
 
Crocus Bluff Disc Golf Course is a 9-basket, 18-hole layout overlooking the confluence of the Yukon and Klondike Rivers on the scenic Crocus Bluff Lookout Recreation Site. We respectfully acknowledge that this course is located on the Traditional Territory of the Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in.

The course was built in 2021 thanks to Firesmarting efforts by Wildland Fire Management, along with the vision and hard work of local players and Yukon Disc. Ongoing improvements have been made possible with support from the Yukon Government, Lotteries Yukon, and the City of Dawson.

 We welcome all players to enjoy our short, technical and fun course!

Course Layout
 
9 baskets with two tee pads per basket, creating two unique loops:

  • Red Tees (Baskets 1–9) – Beginner-friendly with shorter, accessible lines and ace potential.
  • BlueTees (Baskets 10–18) – Intermediate layout offering longer, more technical shots.

Each basket is played twice from different tee pads for a complete 18-basket round.

Disc Golf Rules, Safety, and Etiquette

 Basic Rules:

  1. Each throw counts as a stroke.
  2. The player farthest from the basket throws first.
  3. Tee shots must be made from the designated tee pad.
  4. After a throw, the next shot is taken from where the disc landed.
  5. A basket is completed when the disc comes to rest inside the chains or tray.


 Etiquette:

  • Wait for the fairway to clear before throwing.
  • Stay still and quiet while others are throwing.
  • Be respectful of other players, trail users, and the course.
  • Help locate lost discs when possible.


 Safety:

  • Check surroundings before throwing.
  • Avoid throwing if hikers or animals are near the target area.
  • Watch for uneven terrain, roots, and steep edges.
  • In an emergency, call 911 and provide your location as “Crocus Bluff Lookout.”

 

Out of Bounds:

  • All public trails are out of bounds.
  • If your disc lands on or across a public trail, it is considered OB.
  • Penalty: Take a one-stroke penalty and throw from the last in-bounds position or from a designated drop zone if marked.
