I didn't see your concern about Monteagle before, sorry... it's a long steady pull but we had NO difficulties pulling up that "hill"at all. I don't think it's too bad at all, there's an extra lane there for slower moving trucks or cars so you shouldn't have any trouble there. Going down the other side wasn't bad either. :B

Going down worries me a lot more than going up :). I think we'll be okay, though...we just drove it not towing a few months ago, and I didn't think anything of it. But seeing those runaway truck ramps is a little scary.
Thanks for the route info....good to know the drive isn't bad! And your tip about tours comes a little too late for me...I just went to reserve one the other night, and the Frozen Niagara one we planned to do had only one ticket left; I had no idea they sold out so far in advance! I managed to grab that last ticket so I could do that tour with our three year old (who doesn't need a ticket), though, and my husband will take the older kids on one of the longer, less toddler friendly tours.
Sorry to hear about your reservation dilemma, we found out the hard way too. Bummer
Just take your time going down the pass, down shift as others have advised and keep your speed down. YOU can do this!
