I saw a best trail names thread, but the quote below got me thinking.

The names of their trails suck. Tippy Canoe. Come on.

However, that particular trail name I find to be somewhat fitting

Tippecanoe.png

More info - A nickname for William Henry Harrison (U.S. President March 1841–April 1841) from his role in the Battle of Tippecanoe. Tippecanoe and Tyler too, an 1840 slogan and song based partly on this nickname.

Cannon has one right now called "TBD Trail" that is stupid which was discussed in another thread. What other trails names suck?

Worse than TBD Trail - which will be named in honor of someone eventually - is "Wicked Hahhhd." How long until it's sponsored by Dunkin Donuts? :puke:

What's wrong with "Tippecanoe"? Where is it?

FYI, "Tippecanoe" is not pronounced like "tippy canoe", it's pronounced like "tip a canoe". At least that's how my history teacher pronounced it.

I think it along with "and tyler too" is a pretty creative pair of trail names given the history

Cannon: Global Warming Glade. "Hey, lets take all of the joy out of this glade." "Yea, good idea."

Any trail that begins with Middle. Upper and lower is one thing, but thirds? Superstar is 3 trails. WTF?

Black Bear at Stratton, because it is the only blue way down on that side of the mountain. You would think it would be a diamond, instead it is the only trail in that area that is not.
