Roadies: A list of local Austin hills and % grade

[katana]

Hello,

I've been compiling a list of local Austin hills with the % grade for those of you wondering how steep that hill you climb really is. I'm looking for input on other hills in the area that aren't on my list and other useful information.

Looking at www.topozone.com , it looks like it rises about 300 ft over a 1/2 mile or so - which would give you an average grade of 11%. That seems about right - it's pretty steep, but not as steep as Beaufort or Courtyard.
