Stage Rating Scale

I am working on the race day guide book today. I remember quite a few people saying that they didn't feel some of the legs did not match up with the ranking of Easy, Moderate, Moderate/Hard, or Hard.

Here is a link to an old Blog with the most updated Maps of the course.

Would anyone like to chime in on how they feel what each leg should be rated. I base most of my ranking on elevation gain and very little on distance. Some people will say that stage 1 is way easier because it is 2.77 (6% grade in some sections and has a hill for 1.5 miles) than stage 4 because it is 5.00 miles (which gains maybe 20 feet).

Stage 4 5.00 EM
Stage 5 5.40 EM
Stage 6 4.70 MH
