I did not believe it until I saw it and walked up it. Why do you think they have steps on the sidewalk on Canyon Avenue.

No doubt the area is extremely nice and fresh

If I get the video in real time I will prove you that is indeed very steep,on the video you can't tell much,as a matter of fact when the guy is going up and down seems to be the same...that's how confusing it is,and as I said before I'm not comparing this climb with any other so... ;-&
