Rock Lobster completed in 2017 - 3.8 km (GPS track shortens actual slope distance).
This two way featured single track climbs above Fiddlers Green through Fir forests and open cut blocks.
Big views of the valley and rivers - great at sunset.
Lots of exposed rock features, wildflowers, and huckleberries to pick in season.
Hikers and snowshoers will enjoy this trail as well.

Access Info

Take Fiddlers Green off the Swamp, or you can pedal up the Bend road.
Take a left on Black Diamond - trails starts 40 up from the junction.

       Currently a bit of a trail to nowhere but well built and lots of fun. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.
