Climbed 13 September 2020. Pretty steep climb with indeed percentages above 7％. But fortunately not endlessly long. Good road. Lots of traffic around the Verdon in summer though. Strava segment is called "col de quinson", but of course it is a côte! I did not take any photos'unfortunately.

The road surface is good but it feels a lot steeper than 7％ all the way.
