Set in Northern Chile, where the Atacama Desert, the Andes Mountains and the Pacific Ocean all converge, is the dramatic setting for the Minas Perdidas Resort. Originally, the area was a major fishing port, then the copper and gold mining industry created a short-lived boom town. The only remaining feature from the abandoned town is the large cathedral that has been converted into the clubhouse.
The original course at the resort, the Dunes Course, works its way through the vast salt dunes with a few holes on the edge of the mountains and a few seaside holes. Wide fairways make this course playable for the usual high winds of the area. Featured holes include the opening hole, a reachable par 5, with one of the old mine shafts fronting the green, awaiting those attacking in two. The 16th and 17th holes will provide risk/reward along the ocean. And the memorable mid-length par 3 18th tees off by the ocean, over the bay toward the large cathedral and the adjacent cemetery.

If you click on your image in Imgur, down the right side is several options. Click the blue COPY button for the BBCode (message boards & forums) and paste that string of characters in. Simples.

Thanks as always, Sandgroper. You seem to be one of the most universally helpful chaps on here. And sorry sooooooo slow to respond, I haven't been able to hit the links online, or the great outdoors, in a few months. Hit 'em straight, boss.
