sounds good! I may have as much as 15' rise from the lowest to highest point. It starts with a low grade, and gets steeper toward the top--I guess it is the old river bank. And if it weren't for my garage and a couple of trees, it could be an impressive jump. I'm with you an the step-up jumps.
What do you think? Should I try to make a straight run from low to high? Or should I break it up into shorter sections?
