The damage is still being assessed on the back. A few for the eyes to see.
The 14 fwy/ 15 green areas.
The bridge washout on 6 tee.
14 Tee had water on top of it.
14 Fwy with the bunker sand washed out, debris tossed about.
Cart path on 15, violent rise of water tends to lead to violent results.
14 Fwy, that sand is now gone or sitting in the fairway.
12 Tee near the out flow, water rose about 9ft.
18 Fairway, water covered the red and white tee boxes, this was Saturday, 48 hours after start of flooding.
Looking across 17 and 18 freeways.
This was one of the most violent floods we've had in a long time. Even with full staff we're looking at a cleanup that will last for at least 2 weeks.
As for long term damage, that will have to be assessed. The plans call for an extended aeration of all the flooded fairways and tees. Irrigation controllers have to be looked at on Monday and decide their fate. As for sand in the bunkers, heavy contamination, probably looking at a replacement sooner than later. Topdressing the heavily used traffic areas on 17 and 18 fairways will commence when the course dries out.
As for play, carts on the path until further notice.
