Doing the Manitou Incline, with arthritis

Mary_Anastasia

Has anybody else with osteoarthritis done the Manitou Incline? I'm going to be in Colorado Springs for work, and want to do it, but am super worried about it trashing my knees and hips (I already have a hobble on my bad days). I'm good with hiking inclines, but not usually stairs, it's my hips and especially my knees...
