"Hairbag Alley" ..... in Vail! I love that!
"Oh Sh*t" ....in Vail! Truly what you mutter the whole way down!
On a side note....
We have decided to not number our tables at our wedding reception in December, but instead, we took our picture in front of Ski Run names in Vail that would be appropriate for our ski wedding theme....
Here they are:
Wow!
Forever
Deuces Wild
Cloud Nine
Champagne Glade
Lover's Leap
Hunky Dory
Look Ma!
Gitalong Road
Born Free
Oh Sh*t! (he wants this to be his buddy's table!)
Columbine (our state flower!)
That's kindof fun, right?

Mustang Sally at Timberline. Nice powder blue, rarely run (crosses West Leg Road, very much a green). Due to be made longer with work over the summer.
Stormin' Norman at T-line, run and lift name. Lovely quad, even if I did sacrifice a brand new pole to the ski gods on that lift.

Chicken's Way Out...Panorama Mountain, BC.
I was on a nice, groomed black run that all of a sudden got very steep, and saw a sign "Chicken's Way Out". I opted to keep going down the run.....I was fine with it and tried it a few more times. The day that I was skiing, it was icy.....glad I had nice sharp edges !

Organ Grinder at Sugarbush.
But more than that, it's always seemed to me that some resort should try a little reverse psychology: It might encourage the faint of heart and cut the braggarts down to size if they named the laziest green run "Instant Suicide" and the glarliest double-black "Little Miss Muffett."

Holiday Valley:
- The Wall (hill that is at about an 80 degree angle so that they can't groom it...only place anywhere near here that can actually have an avalanche)
- Ego Alley (not particularly hard, but it doesn't get enough snow so it's pretty stupid to go down it)
and I want to put ski hill names on tables at my wedding! That is such a great idea

Devil's Crotch: Breckenridge
Ha, you beat me to it! I was just coming to post that one. I've never skiied it, but it's one of my husband's favorite runs and he seems to think it's pretty accurately named!:p
I also like Loco at Beaver Creek. The first time I ever went down it, I really did think I was crazy, but now it's one of my favorite runs!

Here's a few from WA:
Bomber Bowl and Ka-Wham, at Mission Ridge. (named after a bomber plane that once crashed there)
Snorting Elk Bowl and Mr. Magoo at Crystal Mountain. Mr. Magoo is a blue, but the terrain is such that you can never see very far ahead.
Also at Crystal, a good green run for a Diva: Queens. Accessed from a lift called Forest Queen.

Hellgate at Hunter Mountain.
Haven't been down it, but my dad always told me to stay away from that trail when I tried (very poorly) to ski as a teenager.
