" OK, I know, this column is titled “Finding a Crowd-Free Tahoe,” and most people will tell you that the Bijou Disc Golf Course is anything but crowd free. Regardless of its regular use, Bijou retains a wide-open, come-as-you-are atmosphere. Moreover, it is a beautiful place to get in a quiet pre- or post-work walk while engaging in a little friendly competition.
The beginning of the Bijou course 17 years ago has become local lore. It is a story of locals coming up with new ways to have fun in their backyard while volunteering their time to raise awareness and funds within the community.
After seeing pictures of courses in Oregon (taken by fellow city parks employee Greg Ross), Russ Thaw spearheaded the project to develop a course. He jerry-rigged the first baskets out of empty plastic chemical drums." (
