Recreational 9 at Bootleg Gap Golf in Kimberley, British Columbia, is a nine-hole layout designed by Les Furber, a Canadian architect known for his work across Western Canada. Kimberley sits in the East Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, in the Rocky Mountain Trench at an elevation of roughly 1,100 meters. The area's mining heritage and mountain setting provide the backdrop for this course, which serves as a more casual complement to the club's primary eighteen-hole facility. Furber's design work typically emphasizes playability while incorporating natural terrain features, and this nine-hole course reflects that approach with a routing suited to recreational golfers and those seeking a quicker round. The topography in this part of the Kootenays includes rolling terrain with views toward surrounding mountain ranges, and courses in the region often feature elevation changes and forested corridors. The climate at this altitude means a shorter playing season than lower-elevation British Columbia courses, with conditions best from late spring through early fall. The course functions as an accessible option for members and visitors, offering a less demanding experience than championship-length layouts. Kimberley's location along Highway 95A, between Cranbrook and Invermere, places it within a network of mountain resort communities where golf complements skiing and outdoor recreation. The nine-hole format suits families, beginners, and players looking to work on their game in a relaxed mountain environment.
