INTRO
"[This] is one of the most scenic and isolated climbs in the U.S. It is usually quite thin of traffic but there can be some vehicles on good weather weekends. In the trees down low, the grade is stout over this initial section. About two miles into the ascent keep left at a junction to continue to ascend. This is where the true nature of the hill is revealed. From here the route heads along a ridge over fairly steady grade with amazing views of unbroken emerald colored forestland. The grade over this stretch is solid and along with several small descends along the way which knock down the hill's average grade. Toward the summit you encounter the steepest stretch of sustained climbing on the hill." (This quote is presented with the approval of John Summerson from The Complete Guide to Climbing (by Bike), 2nd Edition pg. 113.)
