Fire road that connects the entire Maple Valley-Black Diamond trail area. Links Lake Sawyer (across the road at the south entrance) Black Diamond Open Space, Summit Ridge, and Henry's Ridge together. This is a nice and easy ride that has some very scenic views in the bloom of spring, traverses under power lines, and has a hike-a-bike over some railroad tracks.

Starts out of the Black Diamond Open Space Parking Lot.
