So I took this from 7 sisters ride, and elevation profile from: http://www.geoladders.com/gps_route_racer.php?route_id=488
Here is the link (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=en&geocode=&saddr=5238+Michelson+Dr,+Irvine,+CA+92612&daddr=33.535993,-117.778115+to:Alta+Laguna+Blvd+%4033.548020,+-117.754860&mrcr=0,1&mrsp=1&sz=16&mra=dpe&dirflg=h&sll=33.54,-117.770262&sspn=0.016025,0.026951&ie=UTF8&ll=33.539928,-117.767022&spn=0.016025,0.026951&z=16&om=1)
So hill starts at way point and goes until end marker. Does it have a lot of stop signs, traffic lights?

Thanks.

I'm not sure which hill you're inquiring about? Laguna Canyon/El Toro is okay, traffic can be heavy. There's better hills. Also looks like Pacific Island Drive is in there, which is too steep for repeats. Not Sure, but Bluebird Canyon may in there as well, which is a nice climb. Personally I prefer Silverado, Modjeska, and Live Oak Canyons, as there's no signals and it's a little more rural.

I was referring to Thaila St one, that goes to Temple hill Drive. It's on google maps link I posted. Starts at waypoint. How long is the Pacific Island Drive? Also those canyons you mentioned how are the roads. Someone mentioned Silverado one has water and parts of it are dirt?
