Skyuka Mountain is the signature climb of the Hincapie Gran Fondo and is a very steep four mile climb. White Oak Mountain is the back side of Skyuka, and is a bit longer but less steep overall. Both climbs are very difficult and have equally difficult descents. Exercise caution when descending on this ride! This route has you climbing Skyuka and descending White Oak, but the route is a loop, so just reverse to climb White Oak and descend Skyuka you'll end up at the same point regardless of what you choose.
