Grizzly, Northwest Face
Pettengell, South Face
Grays Peak, Ruby Couloir
Cooper, South Side
Guanella Pass:

Breckenridge:
Crystal Peak, East Face
Peak 10, Fourth of July Bowl
Guyot, NW Face
Fletcher (several routes, including a couloir into Mayflower Gulch)
Hoosier Pass:
Silverheels, North Couloirs (13900')
Gore Range:
East Red, Southeast Face (this bowl is known as The Catcher's Mitt).
Mt. Powell, South Face or Southeastern Couloir
Baldy Mountain (Vail), Rogaine Gully
Rain Peak appears to have a nice steep gully on its NE side
Other:
Mt. Sheridan, East Face (13745', Fairplay); there is a better line on the N side.
Etc.
