Biking to the Top of Steptoe Butte in Steptoe Butte State Park, Washington State
Wayne and Lisa ride their bikes to the top of Steptoe Butte along the spiraling road to the summit. The climb is 1,100 feet of gradient over about three and a half miles of distance. Although it was expected to be a fairly low climb gradient (seven to eight percent), there were short bursts to 14% and 16% that made it quite challenging for Wayne. Lisa, on her EBike, made it look easy. We accomplish two trips up the butte and have a great time.
