Teapot is a short, back-loaded out-and-back mountain biking climb in Pinehurst Park, a city park in Wisconsin. The route is about half a mile long and rises from 925 feet to 995 feet, with a total gain of 242 feet over the course of the trip. The steepest stretch comes early on, at about 0.14 miles, where the grade reaches 8%. For timing, late spring and early fall are the most comfortable. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show May highs around 70°F and September highs around 72°F, while winter highs stay in the 20s. The station sits slightly lower than the route's high point, so temperatures up top run a little cooler. Other mountain biking trails sit close by, including Fern Sniper and Dogger, each about 0.2 miles away, and Slingshot at about 0.2 miles. Climbers can find Mt. Simon roughly 3 miles off.
