Uphill -- not good. Several long sections that are too steep and loose to pedal. I hiked probably 40%. The steeper the section, the looser it got. The views made it fun, but I'd never do it again. Better to shuttle the pavement up, and pedal the double track.

Downhill -- a high speed romp through the alpine meadows up top and the bottom half is like the Forest Moon of Endor. Definitely NOT a black diamond, but the loose conditions give it a dark blue, for sure. Leave your XC tires at home. This is Minion country.
