I'd say most did both hills last year, weather wasn't the best last year but the forecast for tomorrow is pretty good.

SKT 160 takes in Mahon Falls, not 100% sure if its the same route you will be doing, but if it is, it is tough, particularly right at the top, but its not as bas as some would have you believe. Just take it easy before the top and leave something in your leg for the last 400m. I'd argue the descent is worse, very narrow and fast, which combines to make it dangerous.
Take care and enjoy.
