Climbs 80 ft over 2.8 miles through 5 switchbacks, with sustained grades near 24% and pitches to 34%. Stretches run along a shelf with a drop of up to ~180 ft on the downhill side. Few of the stretches measured have level ground to pull onto. Dead-end road with no mapped turnaround, so expect to back out or unhitch.
