Indian Creek Trail #253

This long, run-hike climb rises in Arizona. Expect 50 to 84 minutes. The hardest 500 metres average 21.5% and start 5.2 km in, so the worst of it lands when you are already committed. North-facing, so it holds shade and snow longer than the sunny side of the valley. At 3.8 TEP it sits in the easier half of the catalogue. Mostly on gravel and farm tracks.
