In the summer, come and stay at Ms. Nye's house in Truckee for a week. While there, go to the Whitehawk Ranch for a day of golf. Whitehawk Ranch Golf Club is the crown jewel of the Ranch. Carved from the natural terrain of the Mohawk Valley, emerald green fairways are framed with native grasses and a profusion of wildflowers. Seven streams -- meandering through tall pines, cedars, firs, and quaking aspens -- create ponds and waterfalls that contribute to the challenge and beauty of the Dick Bailey-designed course. From the championship tees, the par-71 course plays 6,983 yards, and with four sets of tees for each hole, golfers of all levels can expect an exhilarating round of golf.
