How it rides
83 corners over 45.4 miles — 1.83 a mile, and 181° of turning for every mile ridden. That scores CS-4, Twisty on the five-point curviness scale. 52% of those corners are sharp ones, and the road reads as tight.
What it climbs
The road climbs 2,079 feet in total, 46 feet per mile, between 887 and 1,370 feet — 482 feet of relief. The longest single climb is 230 feet over 0.7 miles, and the steepest grade on it is 9.5%. For this country that is steep.
Surface, speed and traffic
Paved end to end. 94% of it is back road rather than highway, the other 6% state or US route. Posted speeds run to 55 mph, typically 55, measured across 13% of the route. State traffic counts cover only 4% of these miles, too little to put a number on, which is itself a fair sign of how quiet they are.
