Is there a symbol that can represent the "Bunny hill" symbol used in North
America and some other American territories with mountains, to designate
the ski pistes open to novice skiers (those pistes are signaled with green
signs in Europe).
I'm looking for the symbol itself, not the color, or the

Well also these symbols, if you want (these are not really "diamonds"), but
the wordpress page forgets the "bunny hill". It starts only with the green
circle (in fact a black disc colored in green) which maps to blue pistes in
Europe.

Is there a symbol that can represent the "Bunny hill"
Well...to pick the nit, these shapes are rhombi; known colloquially as
"diamonds".
So what's the symbol for "bunny hill" in Europe?

Very poor suggestion I think. This is a single symbol by itself.

I saif it: there's no symbol in Europe for pistes, just colors. The
American "Bunny hill" maps to "green" pistes in Europe.
(the European piste colors are used also for drawing their ways on maps,
not just found in signages).
Piste signs are typically all the same shape in the same station (most

Makes sense. But it doesn't seem like we need any new symbols. I think one
of these should do for hard and extra-hard slopes:

What you'd like is in act similar to the zero-width joiner, between two

Some documentations also suggest that the two diamonds are not stacked one
above the other, but horizontally. It's a good point for using only one symbol,
encoding it twice in plain-text if need
The "green" physical color does not need encoding. A black disc is enough,
just like the black square and the black diamond/romb (the rest is styling).
There's also the orange oval (horizontal) used for free-rides in America
(in Europe, not symbol but the yellow color, used for some authorized

The rope (or other barriers) are also present in Europe, but they are
considered true "pistes" by themselves, even if they are relatively short. In
frequent cases they are connected upward to a blue pi
