Skied that yesterday. Snow conditions were tough but I agree, has a semi western feel with the loose birch trees. One of my favorites areas as well.

I think Lower Ovation has the longest steepest pitch at the K. I have been a season pass holder for decades and nothing is super steep but I think Ovation would be my pick. Nice run and you skied it well. I love the K. Have you ever skied the line between Dip Woods and East Fall? We call it OPF,Our private fall-line. It’s fun, thanks for sharing.

Yup, Lower O is probably the longest sustained steep pitch, upper Vertigo nice too. I remember many years ago lower O was closed because the whole slope started to glide avalanche…glad you liked the vid and hope you are enjoying the SS Glacier!

@@kurtschmid I believe cascade is supposed to have the steepest fall line as far as marked trails go. There’s some really steep unmarked ones though.

@coasterthekid8867 yeah there are some steep rolls on Cascade but lower ovation and upper east fall are more tilted 🤙lower O actually avalanched one year….

That may have been called Mississippi Ave back in the early 80's. Love the music ! B-52's !! Also, there is a run called Julio that is badass. PLUS the Tougher RUN CALLED ANARCHY. Can be accessed off Launch Pad before Ovation !

Explore a bit further left, there is a nice natural bowl that can get you either to the next trail over, or to a steep tight line down.

Haha the east coast is not steep (except Mt W and similar zones) but the gnarly snow/ice can def make it challenging.

Have you explored the area near the peak of killington (kinda near catwalk) it seems there could be some really nice and steep lines over there - if it is skiable at all.
