I don't run a gps so can't help you there. It would have been no more than a couple hundred meters elevation, at around a 45degree climb. It was straight up though, with rocks and a few tight trees on the climb. The sort of hill that wouldn't really be an issue if you could crank into it in 3rd and keep it on the boil, but had enough challenges that you really had to work at keeping 2nd gear singing, and with the 250 as it dropped off the pipe it just didn't have enough unf to get back going.

Your contours look crazy! One can only assume it was a nasty switch back goat trail.
