okay, thanks for that

For the topographically curious, according to DeLorme Topo, Eichele Road has
an overall climb of 1.0 miles with an average grade of 7 and an elevation
gain of 300 feet.

Most of that is backloaded with 195 foot elevation gain in the last 1000
linear feet; 450 of which is at a grade of 20 or better, with a brief spike
of a staggering grade of 35.
