Bel-Air Country Club

George C. Thomas Jr.

A canyon club in the hills. Hollywood below. The holes do not care.

Thomas cut Bel-Air into the canyons in 1927 — a tunnel to the 10th, a swinging bridge, holes that drop and climb. Hogan practiced here. The photographs in this collection are that ground: canyon greens, a carry you can see all the way down, last light on the hill.
