Yeah, I think the author says as much, but he wanted to create a new rubric on how to assess 'Steep' and what it really means.  That Run off the top of Lone Peak that you have to check into the Patrol Hut for (with Beacons etc) is pretty hairy.

I would have thought (from my experience) Stauffenberg was the steepest run at Taos...but I guess I was wrong (I think the kicker is that it is also narrow).

I like that DJ's Tramline at Canno has the steepest section of any 'on the map' run in the East (it sure as heck always feels like it!).
