I can not provide a comparison, simply because my Beverages run up 
and down ravines, and terminate into the side of upslopes. I'd 
estimate the elevation change at 40-50 ft. For both beverages, both 
ends are high points. They are reversibles, average height about 7 
ft (to clear the deer), approximately follow the slope of the 
ground, use DXE hardware, and work fine in both directions. They are 
500 ft and 550 ft long. I find them useful as high as 20M!
