Breath-taking desert scenery at Sun Mountain Course at Las Vegas Paiute Golf Resort

Paiute Snow Mountain and Paiute Wolf draw attention for their challenge. But Sun Mountain -- the third Pete Dye design at the resort -- is easily the most scenic. From the golf course, the looks to the mountains, the blue water glistening in the man-made lakes, the Joshua trees - these all make for an unforgettable round of golfer vs. nature.
