This would take a little driving but there is an excellent training hill up near Snohomish called High Rock Rd. Its about a 4 mile climb, the route dead ends and is out in the country basically so it does not have much traffic. Plus there are nice places to ride in the surrounding area.
I've included a couple of maps - our route is up High Rock until you get to the T, Left onto Lake Fontal Rd stop at the Y in the road - you can continue, but both left and right hand part of the Y are dead ends.
The second image is the surrounding area just so you can get an idea of where it is in relation to the town of Snohomish. Avoid riding on RT 203 as much as possible - it is busy and has little to no shoulder.
