Description

It's worth noting that Hobbit 3 is one of the few trails in the West Mag area that haven't been clearcut as part of the giant 2012 deforestation / fuels cleanup project.

It's generally an intermediate trail, though it has one climb that is quite steep and somewhat loose. It's tough enough to challenge most riders with a high heart rate, although it's not particularly technically challenging.

Fun little section on the Magnolia Trail in Nederland, Colorado.

A big, somewhat loose climb here can get the heart rate up.

From Hobbit 3 heading south. Lost Meadow to the right and Hobbit 3 to the left.
