the 1st big climb is about 30 miles..between rest stop 2 and 3.... then onto rest stop 3 is on another climb up to the lunch area...
the first climb is steep but short...what is scary is you can see it from a way out before you get there...
Then there is one on the way back...you drop down it right after rest stop 1...
everyhting else is typical desert rollers and slight grades
