1. Bear Mountain #13, 488 yards, par 4 This colossal cruiser epitomizes the tough, demanding nature of this spectacular Nicklaus layout. Sure, the downhill 5th might be a tad more scenic, but this waterside beauty, which screams "power fade" off the tee, is more unique. A rock wall, an aiming bunker, leaning firs, a lake, a wildly contoured green... come on, what more could you want? Bear Mountain Golf Resort Properties
2. Victoria Golf Club #7, 369 yards, par 4 Skirting the water-worn rocks along the Strait of Juan de Fuca, the 369-yard par-4 7th, which is named "Mount Baker" in honour of the impressive backdrop, at the famed Victoria Golf Club is simply sublime. Gorgeous, graceful, and potentially lethal, the 7th is capped with a vicious green that Ben Hogan called one of the most difficult he had ever encountered. Victoria Golf Club
3. Morningstar #7, 464 yards, par 4 Throughout the 1990s this long, nasty par-4 left numerous Canadian Tour players beat up and licking their wounds on their quest to secure a playing card. At 464 yards from the tips, it's got plenty of length. But the trio of bunkers on the left and dense woods on the right is what really knots the knickers. Morningstar Golf Course
4. Storey Creek #16, 408 yards, par 4 Storey Creek, with its appealing away-from-it-all aura, has many holes that belong on the highlight reel. But perhaps no hole better sums up Storey Creek's many charms than the 16th. Isolated, tree-lined, and extremely ticklish, this downhill 408-yarder, which features a ball-devouring creek protecting the front of the green, is always a treat to play. Storey Creek Golf Club
