| Deb | Extra Bag Along East Ridge  Date Climbed: Apr 20, 2009 | |
| With Crescent Moon Couloir under my belt in quick time, I had enough energy to go tag The Sisters. Did the east ridge over east Sister then on to the actual summit. I found this ascent to be more exposed and nearly as steep as CMC. Easy bag but I took the dirty trail descent on the backside; the ascent was a bit too steep and slushy to crampon back down. Traversed to base of Round Top then boot glissaded down to lake. BOY was it hot! Didn't see a soul all day. :) | |

| Just out for some exercise .. snowshoed up to Round Top / Sisters saddle from Carson Pass. Scrambled up east Sister first, then looked over and decided to do the west Sister too. Beautiful day, warm and not much wind .. looked like the skiers & boarders were having a blast. -- Also did the east Sister in April 2005 after doing the Crescent Moon Couloir on Round Top. | |

| keema | First time? Really? Date Climbed: Aug 6, 2008 | |
| With all the times I've been in the area and up Round Top I had never tagged the Sisters. So I headed up the slope from Winemucca Lake and tagged the East summit from the saddle before heading over and getting Round Top for the umpteenth time. | |

| Left from Woods Lake TH. Gained the west ridge from Round Top Lake. Stayed very near to the ridgeline the entire way. Many fun class 3 spots. Climbed Round Top afterwards. | |

| Quick hike up the East Ridge after summiting Round Top. Couldn't quite convince myself to tag both summits, but enjoyed the view. | |

| A Bit | Both Sisters Date Climbed: Jul 5, 2007 | |
| Great wildflowers displays on the trail from Carson Pass. Once I hit the saddle between Sisters and Round Top, I headup up the West and down and up the east Sister. Nice views from both. | |

| metasyn11 | Round Top Lake -> Sisters -> Round Top Date Climbed: Jul 7, 2007 | |
| Climbed up the saddle between the sisters from Round Top Lake. Bagged the west one, then traversed eastward over the east Sister then Round Top. Fantastic hike if you can handle the weekend afternoon crowds on the descent. | |

| 96avs01 | Both Sisters Date Climbed: Jun 22, 2007 | |
| Tagged both Sisters from Round Top Lake. Hiked the west trail from Woods Lake, then climbed to the saddle between the Sisters, up the West Sister, traverse to the East Sister, finished the loop on the east trail of Woods Lake. This finished a great Friday that include a summit of Hawkins Peak. | |

| That long traverse with Matthew (described below) was really great fun. The Thimble was the most thrilling of the summit blocks, harder than Round Top even. Trip Report | |

| Apr 4, 2004: Traversed the ridge as part of a fantastic springtime traverse from Carson Spur to Carson Pass: Martin Pt, Thunder Mtn, Thimble Peak, Covered Wagon Peak, Melissa Coray Peak, Fourth of July Peak, The Sisters, Round Top, and Elephants Back. There's some nice class 3 on the west ridge leading up to the lower summit, one of the more enjoyable bits of a thoroughly enjoyable day. Nov 2, 2002: Loop around Round Top, The Sisters, and Fourth of July Peak from Woods Lake. Pleasant day. | |
