Expected cut lineNo cut (match play bracket)After 36 holes

Strength of field

The tournament draws Alaska Golf Association members across multiple divisions, with prior editions attracting competitive fields in Men's Open, Men's Senior, and Women's brackets.

Course expectations

Settlers Bay's championship 18-hole layout plays to a par 72 at 6,596 yards from the tips, with a demanding slope of 129 and a famously difficult closing hole, Nome, considered one of Alaska's toughest.

Weather risk

Late June in Wasilla brings near-constant daylight and typically mild conditions, though Alaska weather can shift quickly—players should prepare for variable temperatures and occasional wind off the Knik Arm.
