No joke. That 2-tiered hill killed me mentally last year - I punched it the first time around and as I turned the corner, there was that wall. That last 200m going up the "down" section to the summit still haunts me.
I won't be doing it this year, but I did most of the mountain stage course and did the summit climb over the weekend. The roads are in great shape.
Best of luck to all who are racing.
