HIGHBRIDGE HILLS TRAILS TO OPEN

Highbridge Hills will be opening 21 miles of turf, road and mountain trails for running, biking, hiking, walking and skiing in September, which is only days away. The 400 acre property will uniquely become home to athletes to train and compete on a trail system that is mowed daily, 6-10' wide and wider in numerous areas. Running on a turf trail, mixing it up with mountain trails and roads will be an option. The "mega trail" system will be open to barefoot runners also. A "Highbridge Tough Mudders" course to train and compete on is also in the works. Sites along the trails have up to 50 mile views, rolling and great turf and soil conditions. Camping and housing is available for groups as well. Bicycle tours and group rates offered. Bring your bike, shoes, and legs to have a blast!
 

ANNOUNCING HIGHBRIDGE HILLLS ADVENTURE SPORTS 2015 SUMMER GAMES!

In the summer of 2004, disc golf was born in the "Hills of Highbridge"! Some 400 acres of pristine property in the Penokee Mountains became home to the largest disc golf complex in the world. Built and managed "certified organic", it has become the "Mecca" to those who visit the "hill", has hosted the World's in 2007 and now has set out to host an exciting event called the Highbridge Hills Adventure Sports Summer Games. It will become an annual event and expand into winter games in 2016. The events will be unique in the sense that you will be able to train and then compete on the same site! A year around special membership will enable you to train, camp and simply enjoy life any time....any day....365 days of the year for $!/day membership! The events will be for individuals, families, couples or teams. Competitions between states, schools and cities will be encouraged. The HONOR system will prevail as "rule of law" Simplicity will be the format....challenge will be the mission....fun will be the outcome.
 


Live Life To The Fullest!

The fast and hectic pace of life today places demand on all of us which becomes burdensome. Learning that "less can be more" and sharing the beauty of nature with outdoor activities can bring a balance into one's life! Highbridge Hills is a property that allows an individual, family or group to have fun - in an affordable, active and social way.


Highbridge Hills is located near Lake Superior on one of the highest hilltops in Ashland County. This area is ideal for disc golf, biking, camping, hiking, snowboarding, skiing and tubing - or simply bird watching and relaxing. Not only is Highbridge Hills an ideal atmosphere to play and relax, it also practices "green" standards by building and creating the property certified organic.

HIGHBRIDGE QUALIFYING FOR 2015

Qualifying will begin in May and run through October this year for the first part of our qualifying in three divisions for disc golf for the 2015 Summer Games! By the end of 2014, Highbridge will have 10/18 hole courses completely built. This will allow us to play 900 players at one time at our complex for our summer games. Pro, Ams and Recreational players in both the men’s and women’s divisions will participate. Age brackets in each division will be as follows: 10-14, 15-19, 20-24, 25-29, and on up till the age of 89! The 2015 tournament dates will be announced this summer, coupled with other adventure sports events, we expect the annual summer games event to run for a period of 15 days. At the present time we expect to total 250 pro players, 350 am players and 300 rec players. These numbers are not definite and could change. We are looking to have the registration set at $150 which will include the tournament fee, player’s bag, camping, music, parking, and greens fees for the entire 15 day stay should you like. Bear in mind that the disc golf portion will take in two rounds per day of competition and you will play all ten courses!

For 2013 we will qualify 1/3 of the field of players through a special "tournament player’s card" that you can try to qualify anytime you are up at Highbridge this summer. You pay $10 for the card, can try to qualify as many times as you want during your stay.  You must have at least two witnesses with you as you play. Honesty and the honor system apply. Each month we will post on our web site the total number of players who have tried to qualify and qualify the 50 lowest scores monthly. This year the courses playing to qualify will be Blueberry, Granite Ridge, Gold, Woodland and The Bear! So for 2013 we will have 300 players hopefully named to the summer games challenge! Do the same in 2014, and then in 2015 open the doors to the final 1/3 of the field through an open payment or lottery system. Let the Games BEGIN!

DISC GOLFERS....RESERVATION TIME

The 2013 season for Highbridge disc golf is looking awesome. Due to the lack of snow (at least up to now) there should be a rapid snow melt. Improvements will include fairway brushing, enhanced water hazards, completion of the Whitetail, new basket locations and improvements to our pro shop.

We encourage each and every group to contact HHSC and MAKE those reservations! Each and every year the “tradition” to visit and play “Highbridge” grows. Some groups have been coming north for 8 years now and each year NEW groups discover us to “start” their tradition. Camping and housing options are available so call, text or email us!

For the BEST disc golf in the world…..come to the MECCA …..Bring your game to a new level and discover our natural environment…..devoted to disc golf!
