Tried a different variation of my route to get to Bonneville golf course. Once there, I ran on a couple of fairways, which is great. Running across the driving range to the secret exit from the golf course is a little more treacherous because of all the golf balls, but it was light enough out that I could see them all fine. I did have to stop during the run more than I would have liked, i.e., bio break/cars etc. . ., but overall I hope I remember to try this route again another time.

I was almost hit by a golf ball on Wasatch the other day. The guy got good distance on his drive by using the road for the roll.

I have tried running on BGC during the summer but the golfers start at first light when it is warm. Did you see any golfers?

No golfers today. It was only about 6:35 or so when I was up there, not yet light enough to play and the clubhhouse wasn't even open. Just light enough to see what I was running on.

By the way, I find the times I'm most endangered by golfers is when I'm running the road through the U of U golf course. I'm getting pretty good at spotting the duffers who look like they're likely to hit me if I keep running past them while they're setting up to hit.
