A steep grade refers to a slope or incline that is significantly steep, making it challenging to ascend or descend. Typically, it is measured in terms of percentage, with higher percentages indicating a steeper incline. Steep grades are commonly encountered in roads, trails, and hills, and can affect driving, biking, and hiking conditions. They require more effort and caution when navigating due to the increased difficulty.
