IMPORTANT!:
This course is an object (aka rogue) course in the forest near Inn at the 7th Mountain.
See directions below. We will depart Inn at the 7th Mountain parking lot at ~12:45 PM to Rocktropolis for folks who want to carpool or follow us over to the parking area in the forest. Some of else will play a warm-up round around noon at the 7th Mountain course.
From UDisc:
This fun, but physically demanding course plays along a scenic rocky cliff band and then drops into a deep canyon before climbing back out again. Rocktropolis is longer (average hole 300 feet) and slightly more punishing than some of the other forest courses in Bend, but it still offers plenty of birdie and ace-run opportunities for intermediate players. Most holes offer multiple throwing lanes with the preferred/easiest routes being almost evenly divided between RHBH hyzer (7), anhyzer (6), and flex/straight (5) shots. When the cans appear to be straight in front of you, that's usually not the preferred route.
There are no default "mandos" (unless your group chooses otherwise) so look left and right and pick your best route.
Park in the chain-up area on the north side of Cascade Lakes highway about 0.3 miles past the 10-mile marker. Look for a reflective sign marker painted orange with the Rocktropolis sticker.
The first tee is across the highway (south side) about 100 yards from the road along the trail marked with red ribbons. The disc golf course uses a different trail than the Storm King mountain bike trail that crosses further up the highway.
NOTE: There is a steep endurance trail circuit that runs throughout the course. Please watch for runners and other users when throwing. See hole notes for other tips and alternate tee pad locations.
History
