nice warmup w good view
Second time to the top of 1st Sister. This time from the right past a couple of new bolts. I traversed left to join the center route to the top. Bolts are very old and rusted but it is easy terrain. Next time will try straight up all the way starting at the right of center route.

Fun Warm Up
My brother and I did this in two pitches just for practice. I led the first and my brother led the second.

Run out stuff with our variation
Nico lead, I followed. (Route n° 225-226 in the topo)
Starting by climbing from the right side of the pillar, leaving the 2 bolts of the "variation" on our right side. Put a nut in the rock on top of the pillar. Then climb up to the "possible belay" made of 2 bolts. (very run out, a fall would bring you back to ground - although this is not very hard, like 5.4).
-- Nico actually did a variation to clip the bolt just at the right of the left route intermediary belay --
After that you have 2 bolts quite close to each other to protect the hardest move (5.5) and then it is easier (5.3 - 5.4) to the summit, but run out again.
The view is nice but I think would be better from the top of the left route.

cool route
I started on the far right. Figured might as well since the bolts are already so spaced.
I couldn't find a bolt after the last bulge (20 feet to the upper right of the midway chains) so i ended up slinging that huge horn like 10 feet off route..
might as well
a fall on that would be bad
