Neil's Bullshit Bowl is the observer's right bowl when looking up Willow Fork.
Neil's is open, northwest-facing, and low-angle. When the trees get denser near the lower-portion of the run, you'll
probably want to hang a hard-right and traverse toward Main Willow.
(See
an overview of Willow Fork.)
Follow the directions to Willow Knob from Solitude and then continue up the ridge toward the Park City ridgeline. You can go all the way to the ridgeline and then ski back into Neil's, or you can traverse into Neil's before you reach the Park City ridgeline.
