Sno is northeast PA. Denton is north central and despite all the online ragging, the steeps there are legit.

I can't think of a significant area in PA that doesn't have enough pitch to fully enjoy this storm (maybe Shawnee?), but Blue Knob is probably the best place to be...

Most of these steepest trails are in the mid 20 deg. range There was a misconception about Denton that they had a 45 deg trail..it was 45 % of 45 degrees. You want steep..you head up north or out west.
