Only 23kg? :P
IIRC (and I probably don't because it was the last day of Badlands) it was only rocky right up the top. Lower was more...
Higher is fine on gravel. The bits I couldn't ride on a gravel bike I wouldn't have been able to ride on an MTB either. It was more a case of fatigue and maybe altitude ie. lack of power than anything super tech.

You most definitely can, that guy climbed it with a 23kg gravel bike :) Isnt it a lot more enjoyable with a MTB though? Its what I heard, at least. I'll be around here for a week or so, but I'll definitely come back with some more suitable tyres (last minute change to bring the gravel bike instead of road) to discover the gravel routes around.
