Elm SW climb

A short, very steep climb above Elm in Glarus. The hardest 500 metres average 31.0% and come almost at once, before your legs have settled. Expect 11 to 18 minutes. At 5.5 TEP it sits around the middle of the catalogue. Southwest-facing: it gets the afternoon heat and clears of snow early. On the SAC scale it is mountain hiking, with uneven ground that asks for some care.
