Well there is Fancy Gap leading down 77 toward NC

coming down Fancy Gap is very steep. Once down there is nothing but small hills, Once past Charlotte basically flat. If you have 'jake or exhaust' brakes then no problem with Fancy Gap. Just get in the right lane and gear down.
I would not suggest coming down US52. Very steep and curve. Single
lane most of the way down.
I might add that US52 down hill has a 8 ton limit. This is to keep
big rig trucks coming down to avoid the weight scales when you come down I77 and cross into NC.
