It's 7.6 miles and you gain about 4500 feet in altitude. Teslas do not yet take altitude into their estimates, I believe; abetterrouteplanner.com does

A lot of the experience is the drive itself; the road is thin, barely enough to let the oncoming cars pass safely, and a section of it is unpaved. There are no guardrails; there are often boulders to prevent absolute calamity, but the whole time it feels quite dangerous.

You make a turn and suddenly there's a clearing and you are looking at a view that takes your breath away. Suddenly the wild granite peak of Mt Adams next door.
