my guess is the 4% is just before the easter seals camp bout 3 miles frm georgestown for a few tenths and a short section just prior to flat section along georgestown lake

the neat thing is if its too much you turn around and its all downtown back to idaho springs
it does get steeper beyond downtown georgestown 600' in 2-3 miles to silverplume hence the reason for the loop railroad and then on to bakerville but whenever u feel too tired to continue u can turnaround with a downhill back to car a great way to try a more challengng grade
I am checking with the boyfriend - if he's not up for it, it may be just me, but I think it would be fun!
