The Salida Golf Club was started in 1926 when a golf professional from Colorado Springs, Emmitt Killian, was asked to lay out a golf course on the mesa. The original routing and green sites remain to this day, with the only significant changes being an irrigation system that was installed in the 80's..
The greens are small and fast, there is water on 8 of the holes, and the usual pace is two hours for nine holes. The course is on a slope, but is easy to walk. Trees define each fairway but are not numerous enough to lose your ball in them.
