OK gentleman, this is it. Or should I say, was, is, and will be, because with a 17% grade on the 2nd section, it makes an excellent testing area for what works and doesn't for climbing. I tried this mountain a few times before and stopped pretty early on the middle section, this time I made it about 85% up before I took the wrong line and the front tire slipped. I was also exhausted. I'll have to get in better shape to complete it, but it's 100% doable. About 400W, as mentioned in the YouTube notes I'll later vary the watts by +/- 50W and the seat height as well. Too high of a seat and the front tire gets really squirmy, so you either sit down with a higher wattage, or you lean forward with a lower wattage, probably 300-350W at most. Would a mid-drive do better? Maybe. I'll try one up this one day I'm sure.
The first section is probably about 8-10%, a lot of eroded sandstone that's actually fun. The 2nd section is just brutal, period. The top section is impossible, and since it was completely foggy I decided to head back down this time.
I'll post a video later on the other side of the mountain, that's pretty steep too.
