Contest #862: irrigation dam near Mashkaf, Pakistan
In our hunt for challenging locations, I came across this interesting spot. Given that only two players found it this week, I think we succeeded in finding a tricky one.
It’s located just north of the village of Mashkaf in central Pakistan. It is an irrigation dam – to the right looking upstream is the overflow with several irrigation ditches on the left side.

Contest #861: the 19th hole at the Legends Golf and Safari Resort, north of Johannesburg, South Africa
The Extrene 19th hole at the Legends Golf and Safari Club, north of Johannesburg, South Africa is one unique hole.
Players are taken up to the tee by helicopter where they tee off on a roughly 400 yard par 3. The drop from tee to green is about 400 yards! A spotter on the ground helps keep track of where the ball goes.

Contest #860: the Imperial Map Monument near Kharkhorin, Mongolia
This week we visited another three maps. The Imperial Map Monument commemorates the three empires that settled on the shores of the nearby Orkhon River, near the town of Kharkhorin, Mongolia. The monument consists of a large pile of stones carefully assembled into a cone with nine poles protruding from the top and three colourful mosaics / maps representing each of the empires.
Kharkhorin, known at the time as Karakorum was the capital of the Mongol Empire.
