The 5th hole

 
The photo below is my all time favorite HCC picture!  You can actually see Lake Sequoya in the background.  Furthermore, you can see all of the white pines between #5 and 6 were actually planted!  Thomas Harbison (an early highlands settler and botanist) was apparently in love with white pines and is credited with bringing many to the area.  I am luck to have this photo as it came from the collection of George Maza at the Highlands Historical Society.  It was given to me by a good friend and past chairman of HHS.
