Hi Dan,
Wow, it's all laid out.
Checkout this link for a detailed elevation profile for your ride from Lordsburg to Safford - US Hwy 70 (75.45 mi.)
http://www.mapmyride.com/ride/united-states/nm/lordsburg/547814242092
This site is pretty cool, but slow if you use the "follow roads" feature. However, it might be helpful for knowing what is coming on non ACA routes.
See you soon,
Mike
Hi Dan,
After you click on the link, you will need to click "Display Evelation" on the left hand side of the screen.
But this is some of the info they provided.
max: 4382ft
min: 2905ft
ascent: 733ft
descent: 2012ft
After you lose some elevation, you have to climb back up, then it looks like you have one small hill then mostly downhill.
