West Side and Oyster Bowl Cat Skiing Terrain

The West Side and Oyster Bowl Road leaves Vertebrae Lodge to the west. It climbs through the Staff Trees, passes the Lower Table, and rises through the Clamshell bowl to the Pearl, which is the col at the top of the ridge. A northern branch crosses high in the Clamshell to service Forbidden Fruit and the Plank. At the Pearl, the road crosses the ridge to the west and into Oyster Bowl in the anticipated Lakeside Addition to the Chatter Creek cat skiing tenure. In Oyster Bowl there is a branch north to Game Creek and a southern branch to the rest of the Lakeside Addition. The Game Creek branch has a secondary branch to the top of Fruit Loops, which drops back to the east to join Forbidden Fruit and the Plank near the Waterfall.
