  • Happy trail (body) This is a vertical line of hair that runs from the pubic region up to or past the belly button

. It is more common in men, and the hair is typically less bristly than pubic hair

. Some consider it a symbol of masculinity

  • "Happy Trails" (song) This is a song by Roy Rogers and Dale Evans, which served as the theme song for The Roy Rogers Show on both radio and television

. Dale Evans wrote the song in 1951, and it was released in 1952
