West Side and Oyster Bowl Cat Skiing Terrain

The West Side and Oyster Bowl Road leaves Vertebrae Lodge to climb through the Staff Trees, to cross the Table, and to rise through the Clamshell to the Pearl at the top of the ridge. A branch crosses high in the Clamshell to service Forbidden Fruit and the Plank. At the Pearl, the road crosses to the west and into Oyster Bowl in the new Lakeside Addition to the 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.
