Climb

The climb involves several hundred feet on a steep slope, and then a tight turn at the top of the rock before descending the same way down.

Crash

The hill was the site of an accident in which a Chevrolet Blazer 4x4 lost its brakes and rolled uncontrollably down the hill, plunging 30 feet to the ground. The accident was caught on home video and has been featured on TV shows including Real TV, Shockwave (TV series), When Vacations Attack, and Maximum Exposure.
