Fernie is no "harder" than any other hill IMO. It has all kinds of greens and blues off a number of different chairs, and lots of options if you do want to go higher up and scare yourself. Lots of traversing though, so not the greatest if you're an intermediate boarder who doesn't wax their board properly.
To me the hardest hill around is still Castle. It's cold as F, windy as F, and steep as F with a "blue" run to get you down from the top of Tamarack if you don't want blacks and double blacks. Opening up huckleberry helped, but it's still mostly intermediate terrain.
