    The climb is strenuous but less dangerous than over the blade

      Good to walk in summer when the temperatures are hot.

        You can sweeten the strenuous ascent with a few delicious forest raspberries from the roadside

          It's pretty steep up here.

                  Well, you can also walk in the >other< direction, then it goes downhill ;-)
