So I'll split the way for the steep sections and use 'incline=yes' with the way facing downhill to mark the sections where you are definately going to have to herringbone up the hill. This will allow a certain amount of subjective-ness to be represented on a map. With the SRTM data I think that the resolution of the data would not be detailed enough to detect/show these features as the are likely to be pretty short/small (unlike those for alpine/downhill skiing).
