*  Difficulty index from Dutch cycling magazine Fiets.  It is computed by H^2/(D*10) + T(>1000m)/1000, where H is height in meters, D is terrain distance in meters, and T is summit elevation in meters (if above 1000 meters).  This metric puts emphasis on steepness of climbs, and adds additional difficulty for climbs that finish above 1000 meters (about 3,300 ft) above sea level.  For more info, see fiets or here. My numbers may differ from other published numbers due to differences in exact starting location.  The Fiets index also does not take heat, wind, mud, gearing, rider fatigue, etc into account.
