I know what you mean. For me, it's very reminiscent of the 6 mile training run we'd do when I was on the crew for my undergraduate school. For the last 1.5 miles, it was all uphill. You'd climb for a quarter mile, and you'd think you see the top of the hill, but it turned out to be a little plateau before another quarter mile climb. Finally, after doing 5 or 6 of these climbs, you FINALLY do reach the top of the hill.
Of course, that's where the coach would be waiting to send us down a sidestreet that was, you guessed it, another quarter-mile hill ... which we'd have to run another four times or so up and down.
Nowadays, I can't stand getting to the top of a personal "hill", only to see steeper, taller hills beyond. I'd just like to find the chairlift to the top....
