Ski Area Nicknames

snoloco
Here's some nicknames I know for ski areas.

Mount Snow = Mount Blow
Killington = K-Mart
Stratton = Flatton
Okemo = Nokemo
Hunter = Huntah
Mount Peter = Hill Peter
Mountain Creek = Mountain Crick.

Anyone know of any others?
I've lived in New York my entire life.

Whoah, Benny ups the ante.

Is that a nickname for Stratton, or did you simply feel inspired to share the name of an intimate object?

The drift is early in this one.

I've heard Gore referred to as Bore Mountain, Snore Mountain and (especially for snowboarders) Chore Mountain.

What about A-beach? How may ski areas have nicknames for their parking lots?

Junior asked me to contribute on his behalf:
Mountain Creek = Mountain Crack . Also, The Fifth Circle of Hell. In spite of that he still wants to do ski club there again next year.
