A double volcano day hanging around Bend, OR.

Sunset on Mount Bachelor

---

Morning on South Sister

---

Broken Top

---

---

Well those clouds moved in quick

---

Cool pattern, no idea what this is

---

A hint of glaciers even on OR’s volcanos

---

Flaaat summit plateau, I did manage to ski across it without taking them off albeit with a tricep workout

---

Middle and North Sisters

---

Then Jefferson and Hood further back

---

Cool clouds over Broken Top

---

After finishing South Sister, managed to climb up Mount Bachelor while the resort was still open

---

South Sister from across the valley

---

Different angle of Broken Top

---

I overstayed my summit and managed to get down with the resort all to myself in pretty slushy but fun conditions!

Notes

• South Sister was probably ~11 miles and ~5000 feet of vertical gain in 4 ½ hours, and Mount Bachelor was probably ~4 miles and 2700 feet of vertical gain just shy of 2 hours.
• South Sister was flat in two sections, the middle part and summit plateau. Not sure if there is a good way to avoid having to skin the middle flats on the ski down.
• After doing some research, doing the Three Sisters Traverse doesn’t seem that compelling. I feel like it’d be hard to time the corn aspects, getting the access/road timing would be tricky, and South Sister wasn’t particularly inspiring. I’d be compelled to do the Diller Headwall off the Middle then do something off the south side of North, since it seems kind of logical with the sun and the proximity between those two versus having to tack on South Sister.
