Potentially dangerous. Nice that it now has boxes. My main complaint (as with many courses) is there should be signs explaining rules and, more importantly, etiquette.

My two friends and I had the most ridiculous stunt pulled on us, and could have been seriously injured. There was a group of four guys sitting under a tree (couldn't tell if they were playing or hanging out after a round.) My disc went into the stream, and it took about 10 minutes to find it (all the while these guys are hanging out). When we stepped up to the box of the next hole, they immediately got up and stood behind us. We drove, headed straight down to our discs (I actually jogged), and they started driving. One disc fell ten feet in front of me, the next was heading right at my head before being stopped by a tree.
Now maybe I overreacted, but let me tell you, I could have been seriously injured by these idiots who have no clue about etiquette, not to mention respect for the safety of others.
How do we lobby for signs, so that if idiots like this injure someone, they can be prosecuted?
