Just found this website that plots the elevation changes and % grades along your route.  Looks like it could be helpful.

Well, the name is cute, but I don't think it does anything other than plot the elevation changes on the shortest route. I just tried Philadelphia to New Orleans, and it took me a route with elevations to 3500 feet with slopes approaching 3%. I couldn't imagine that was the flattest route, so I broke it down into Philadelphia to Atlanta, then Atlanta to New Orleans, and the max elevation was about 1200 feet with no slopes exceeding 2%. Net, net...it's useful, but we have to do the work. Smile
