Many golfers can make out the world’s top courses with a quick glimpse at a photo. But what if those photos showed the same courses covered in snow? Think you could still pick them out? With winter storms and arctic cold gripping much of the United States (and other spots around the globe), many courses have shared rare images of their layouts hidden under fresh powder. In some ways, the snow brings out hidden features you might not notice in a regular image—or even in person. Here are some of the more interesting images that have been shared on Twitter and Instagram.
