re: #170 Bubblehead II
The bridge reaches a tremendous height of 44 meters, with a 5.1% and 6.1% incline on each side.
Bah. Child’s play. Try Galena Summit. 7% grade. A real blast in the winter.
When I was doing long walks a few years ago, I turned right off Southcenter Boulevard onto a street that I didn’t realize was a 27% grade until I’d started up it. I barely made it—I don’t think I’ve ever owned a car that would have.
They’re in the process of rerouting it now.
