Tom went right up it..
You really have to see this hill in person to know how steep it is... Video just does not do it justice...

Yep,Tom spanked it... It's amazing how level it looks on video.Not even close to how steep this hill truly is.

I have on board video of the first time I went up it. It still doesn't look like much, but to listen to my passenger and I on the way up tells it all. Video from the top down really shows how steep it is. But, there are some steeper ones in some of the newer trails. That one me and Armstrong went up seemed longer and steeper to me. You get that oh s**t feeling in your stomach.
