The most famous bunker/sand trap on the course, possibly one of the most famous in all of golf. The Coffin Bunker, off of the Postage Stamp 8th green, has a wall so steep that it would be difficult to escape by itself, but complicating mattes is how small the bunker actually is: sometimes it's impossible to take a full swing toward the green let alone the hole.
