Eliot Staples Bering Sea Ice Golf Classic

The Eliot Staples Bering Sea Ice Classic is a snow golf tournament held annually on the third Saturday of March on frozen Norton Sound in Nome, Alaska.

The putting green is a small carpet rolled over the uneven ice near each hole.

They tee off on Nome's seawall, using bright green or orange golf balls for easier visibility.

Balls frequently roll into ice cracks or are lost in snow drifts.

[1][2] It is an accepted practice to steal a partner's ball and make a lot of noise while someone is playing.
