Brutal. Not pretty. Narrow. The steepest part is horrendous, for reference it took me 4mins at 270w with a 30/34 gear ratio. Great feeling at the top!

By far the hardest climb in the Mendips. Gradient is really relentless, when you think it's starting to ease off, it kicks off again! A must do if you like to suffer lol.
