Disc golf in Oct - The best month to play

If you are a disc golfer in Atlantic Canada you already know we are entering the best month.  October disc golf is the best disc golf, there is very little argument about it.  After a beautiful summer where we all get to appreciate long days under full sun, Autumn settles in and gives us those pleasant days and cool nights.   The bugs die off and you are free to wander around in the forest basking in the cornucopia of colours.  These days are limited. each one feels like a gift, and we know it so that is why every single one of them should be enjoyed whenever possible.

Right now our mountain seems to be a beacon of light that calls for all of those souls who wish to take in the last days where you can hike without a winter coat.  You can see the steady stream of cars that now dot the parking lot without bike racks attached to the back.  Those who know the forest know when the mushrooms dot the forest floor you should be there to see them.   Disc golfers have known this forever.  There is something so satisfying about throwing discs in the woods while hardwood trees paint the edges of the fairways with colours that seem to defy reality.  Our 4 courses on the mountain have never looked, or played better.  Our signs are now fully installed, our putter course, the Hopper (with the cutest signs in Canada) is seeing new players almost every day.  We are not overselling the experience when we say this might be the best place in Atlantic Canada to come spend a day right now.  The only downside is that you might have to give yourself an extra hour just to take pictures of all the beautiful things you will see here.

The mountain even has a brand new hike, called the Rosebowl Rambler, that brings you to some beautiful lookouts you may not have stumbled across before.  We could go on but lets just say it would be best if you come and experience it for yourself!
