Straight up. Takes no prisoners, if you get momentum and keep it this will be more manageable but pace yourself. Once you get to the last 1/4 mile it gets (slightly) easier, but the descent is hairy, be sure your breaks don’t overheat!! Plus watch out for Crazy sheep and stray motor homes 😡. Go early in the day, and try not to get blown over on top!! An epic climb that is a most rewarding climb with spectacular views on a good day !... read more
