The Hideout Golf Club is a public golf course in Monticello, Utah. Golfweek has rated it the "#24 Municipal Course in America".[1] It was opened in 2002 after completion in 2001 by Forrest Richardson. Of note is the fact that nine holes of the course are built on the reclaimed former site of a uranium mine and mill, dismantled in the 1960s by the United States Department of Energy. The only directive of the Department was that the reclaimed land be vegetated and protected from erosion, and a golf course certainly fit that bill.[2]
