Trail Goggles

Phenomenon in which one's long Hiking trip in the wild makes physically unattractive persons appear beautiful;

When traversing from place to place via the extensive network of backpackin trails, One becomes preoccupied with the lack of "beautiful people" available for viewing pleasure.

Once resurfacing into society, said hikers standards for sex are extremely lower than they were prior to the adventure

Trail Karen

A karen on the trails. Usually a middle-aged white woman who is hiking to "be mINdFUL" and "EnjOY nATure". However, unlike the people who follow common trail courtesy, these trail karens believe that the entire trail belongs to them. They walk slowly in the middle and refuse to move even if they see someone walking on the very edge of the trail to not bump into them. Then, they expect a thank you even though they didn't move a single inch to make room for others to pass.

Trail karens are also suburban nimbys, brunchtime liberals, and carholes. They complain about how crowded the trails are, but fail to realize that their car-loving suburban-sprawl lifestyle leaves the trails as the only place for others to exercise and get fresh air. Bonus if they bring their aggressive dogs on the hike, let them attack others, and don't pick up after them.

Covid makes trail karens even worse. These trail karens identify anyone with inferior masks as republican karens without realizing how hard it is to run with a thick mask in the first place. They feel like they are doing something morally good by shaming the runners with surgical-level masks or bandanas in the 1 second of risky contact they have. This risky contact could be avoided if the trail karens decide to move off to the side of the trail, but instead, these karens blame the faster runners for being insensitive about covid.
Trail Karen: I can't be a karen because I looove nature and I'm so mindful....
Everyone else on the trail: Yeah, well you're still a self-entitled idiot

Trail Dropper

Whenever you are mountain biking or hiking with someone and they incessantly say “have you ever done blah blah blah trail?” With some dumb description of it. They seem not to be focused on the great experience they are having at the time.

Very similar to when you invite friend to your favorite restaurant and they keep talking about all the other restaurants they’ve been to .
Bob is such a “trail dropper” We were riding one of my favorite trails and all he could talk about was how awesome Whistler is.

Trail license

Just a regular "trial" license but spelled wrong. Mostly done by oblivious non-native English speakers/writers.
Him: OMG! Stop ordering trail licenses, they'll cost us money after 30 days!!!
You: It's a "Trial" license. Not trail!

Trail Nazi

People who are way too serious about the rules of the local hike and bike trail. They often yell at people who break the rules.
The trail wasn't any fun yesterday... it was full of Trail Nazis yelling at everyone.

Trail Dick

Mean-spirited person who doesn’t wear a mask while closely passing others on NY hiking trails during the Coronavirus/COVID 19 Pandemic.

Urban variant: MASKHOLE
Walking on the Rail Trail, Rick and Jan pulled on their masks when approaching an older man on a narrow turn. The older man wore no mask and scowled as he passed. Rick said, “What a trail dick. People could at least have the pretense to hang a mask around their necks.”
