This challenging climb begins just west of Death Valley, with temperatures soaring above 100°F during the summer months. The route starts through a stark, high desert landscape, with steep sections, particularly from miles 2 to 9, where grades hit up to 10%. With a solid road surface and minimal traffic, this 15.7-mile climb offers both a demanding ascent and a sense of isolation, making it a unique cycling experience.
