% grade link
just found a cool site that you can easily find out what percent grade a hill is if you know 2 of the following three things: Vertical change, Horizontal distance or percent grade...all you have to do is type 2 of them into this calculator and it figures it out for you! enjoy the hills!

It's easier to calculate than it is to get the actual values of the hill. I'm still trying to figure out what degree this hill I go up is... changes grades quite a bit from bottom to top.
All I know is... "Damn that looks steep... and fun to go up..."
