ayee, my God, it was steep, probably the most consistently steep trail we've been on up there. We only met one couple on it, they were on their way down. They said, "Good luck making it to the top we gave up". Anyway, 2.7 miles and you gain over 2,000 feet in altitude, it is just some over 5800 feet. The above link has a photo of the mountain. The tower at the top of Mt. Sterling is probably 80 feet tall. It turned cold, the wind was screaming over that mountain so I said, hey let's go up there and eat our trail mix and jerky out of the wind so we did and spent about half hour having lunch in a pretty cool spot with some great views!
