Trespasser
I have never been on or even seen it in person but this Whistler trail is legend. I'm not even sure I want to; I have a feeling it would be so humbling it would spoil the rest of my week. But I just found this vid and the camera work really gives you an appreciation for how steep-and-deep this sucker must be. Enjoy.

Fool O' crap
I rode a trail outside of Nelson BC called the Dirt Diggler - not as many features as Trespasser- but horribly steep, incredibly fun and humbling.

Most definitely shows the incline. Gravity is a friend.
Will be there in a month. Will NOT be riding Trespasser.

If you want something en piste at WBP with plenty of steeps, go up and do Original Sin; or if you want a bit more pucker, In Deep. If you're going to be doing stuff outside the park, Ken, you owe it to yourself to ride Comfortably Numb.

Comfortably Numb is definitely on the ride queue. Anything that won't poke my eye out. ;-o

Be sure and do it from the north (Wedge Mtn parking lot) end. I rode (pushed?) it backwards to the top 2 years ago; will do it the 'right' direction next time. Seems like ol' Maelstrom told me once that Gargamel is a must-do too.
