Fox Run Golf Course (Gallup)

Fox Run Golf Course anchors recreational golf in Gallup, McKinley County, a high desert city on Route 66 at roughly 6,500 feet near the Arizona border. Gallup is known as the "Indian Jewelry Capital of the World," serving as a major trading hub for Navajo, Zuni, and Hopi artisans — the Inter-Tribal Indian Ceremonial has been held here annually since 1922. Red Rock State Park's sandstone formations rise dramatically just east of the city. Golf at this elevation and in this landscape offers something genuinely different: the air is thin, the scenery monumental, and the cultural context unlike anywhere else in North American golf.
