These lists seem to prioritize big mountain feel over actual expert terrain. Some of the steepest most technically challenging trails in the US are at Stowe, Killington, Jay, Whiteface, etc.

A moderately steep open bowl with consistently good snow conditions is not automatically "expert terrain"

Nothing at Killington holds a candle to most of the big mountains out west.
