You mean this wall? are you kidding me?
LOL. mondeo man, nothing lift serviced is that steep once you start skiing stuff where the rise is higher than the run (i.e. 45+). I think salida said it best when he wrote it ain't steep until you can reach straight out behind you and touch the snow while you are skiing, or something like that. The highest consistent lift serviced pitch in the east is barely over thirty degrees.

Though admittedly, I am talking out my ass on this one because I haven't skied Holiday Valley yet, so maybe it is the knar.
