What is the toughest hill climb in the Ohio Valley?

I nominate a few that I have ridden...

Airport Hill (Girty's Point Road) - Ohio County Airport
Kirkwood Heights - 18% Bridgeport
Stone and Shannon - Wheeling
Wheeling Park Drive to WPHS - 16% Wheeling
Rt 88 south of Bethany
1st Street - Wheeling
29th Street Hill - Wheeling
Boggs Hill Road - Wheeling
Miller Hill - Wheeling
Bellview Heights Rd - Bellaire
Kilgore Rd. - West Wheeling

Post hill climbs that you consider the toughest. If possible mileage and percent grade. I know I missed a few or more. I have only rode in the Ohio County/Belmont County area.

Tunnel Ridge owns the coal loadout area on W.Va. 2 just north of the Pike Island Locks and Dam, and 1,470 feet of the trail system crosses the coal company's property. Tunnel Ridge currently is in the process of renovating the property for its loadout area. more...
