    nice start to the list, here's a few more: Pumphouse, the Office, the Orchard, Corona Highway

    we also have some with more straightforward nomenclatures: BTF (Behind the Fence), or Cut the Corner

    Several have started out as locals names but have since made the map.

    Guard-rail Bowl, its next to the forbidden zone.
    I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.

    Baker has more rider applied run names than official ones. And that's just inbounds. Adding the arm, and everything that exits in the Bagley Lakes easily triples that.

    Sticky Trees is half on the trail map.

    Libraries is one of the stranger unofficial names (it's quiet? nobody ever goes in there? Shh, don't say anything?)

    I think it used to be, I noticed the official trail map became a lot simpler than in years past.

    Chicken Ridge and Deathstar are a few other classics

    I hadn't looked at the map in years, but wow, they've really simplified it. Sticky Wicket is gone.

    Deathstar is just the perfect description.

    Yeah, but the first dude stuck the landing.


    And it's below, not above T5, my mistake.

    Interesting him scoping it from the old tram, pre 2006.

    None of our trees runs are on the map. Those with widely recognized names are pretty mundane- “enchanted forest”, “ice cream sundae”. I’m not sure I’m allowed to say more than that

    I think that’s kind of the point. If it’s not on the map and you say the name what are you giving away unless the name identifies it’s location

    Purgatory used to have a run named 666, everyone called it Sixes, but management decided that was too scary/offensive to Texas clientele and changed it on the map to "No Mercy". Everyone still called it Sixes.

    Looks like newer management redeemed themselves, because it's back to 666 on the map.

    Every freakin rock, stump, outcrop and funny looking or not tree has a name at BB. Many have 2 or 3 names including the adult as well as G rated ones, some similar, some totally different. Love hearing the stories about how they got the love.

    I know that line.

    We also named waterfall at KW the Nun's Cunt before we knew the proper name.

    Here at my hill in JP--

    Rabbits: because of how often we ski with rabbits. We spook them up, they run downhill because that's the fastest direction. But we're also going down hill. Fun as shit chasing rabbits.
    Katsu Curry: smells like curry when entering this area. So if you ever smell curry, turn right into the forest.
    The Dam: pretty self-explanatory. You'll know it when you see it. You can air the skier's left pillar.
    Above Paradise: was technically illegal for my first decade. We would have to out-ski patrol chasing us. Which was actually easy at the time.
    Max 38 Trees: because the forest is so tight, it's "max 38 speed." Steep and technical. The snow sluffs with you. Don't stop. Drop in and get the fuck out of there.
    The Deer Trail: without making the traverse between these two trees, you will never access the steeper, left half of the forest.
    Hahnenkamm Heights: a chunk of forest at the peak that gets massive wind. Standing on top makes you feel like you're hauling ass. You have to tuck/crawl over the peak.
    Dragon's Face: Only ever been skied once, by me, and only the lower half. Climbed halfway up and found myself shoulder deep in a wall of sugar. Gripped. Couldn't get it all. South facing, wind-loaded, low altitude. It's only possible a few days every few years. Absurd avi danger. Highly illegal. I've attempted climbing it a few times only to get turned away by moving snow. It's like trying to tame a small dragon.
    The Beach: a small, double fall-line roller on lower mountain that sits in the sun and sees very little traffic. Always worth a lap or two for GS points.
    Tarzan's Jungle: a forest with huge, hanging vines. Very aesthetic, rolly-polly terrain. Feels like another land far away from everything you know.
