1. Red Ledges Golf ClubHeber City, Utah
7,653 yards, par 72

The 200th U.S. course from Jack Nicklaus is another winner. Meandering through Utah's signature red rock landforms 45 minutes southeast of Salt Lake City, Red Ledges combines typical Nicklaus hallmarks (visual intimidation, supreme challenge) with atypical touches (jagged-edge bunkers, a blind shot here and there, carom-inducing contours and greens laced with false fronts).
Toss in stunning views of Mt. Timpanogos and the Heber Valley — most memorably from the 203-yard par-3 9th — and you've got a ledge that's worth the climb.
