Approaching a Hill

When you approach a hill, you need to decide if it is

one of those hills that is just too steep to climb,

descend, or cross. Steepness can be hard to judge.

On a very small hill, for example, there may be a

smooth, constant incline with only a small change in

elevation where you can easily see all the way to

the top. On a large hill, the incline may get steeper

as you near the top, but you may not see this

because the crest of the hill is hidden by bushes,

grass, or shrubs.

Here are some other things to consider as you

approach a hill.

• Is there a constant incline, or does the hill get

sharply steeper in places?

• Is there good traction on the hillside, or will

the surface cause tire slipping?

• Is there a straight path up or down the hill so

you will not have to make turning maneuvers?

• Are there obstructions on the hill that can

block your path, such as boulders, trees, logs,

or ruts?

• What is beyond the hill? Is there a cliff, an

embankment, a drop-off, a fence? Get out

and walk the hill if you do not know. It is the

smart way to ﬁnd out.

• Is the hill simply too rough? Steep hills often

have ruts, gullies, troughs, and exposed

rocks because they are more susceptible to

the effects of erosion.
