Honestly, I relied on the mapmyride distance and I don't know if that was horizontal or not...but it's a short distance. I also relied on their ascent calculation. Personally I would have guessed it was higher...
My calculation was 135 feet of ascent divided by .13 mile.
After a horzontal run, the final climb is about a 40 foot climb over 100 feet. This is one of those hills that you couldn't see over as you crested it in a car (and in 1972, our friends car couldn't crest it without a running start and all the kids leaning forward)
