The Twin Sisters are the closest mountains to those living in Whatcom and Skagit counties, but see the least amount of traffic. For those looking for a truly alpine adventure, the Twin Sisters offer a seemingly endless supply of long, exposed ridges, towers, and summits broken up by small sections of glacier and steep snow. Some objectives can be done in a long day mission, but to truly experience the classics of the range, 3-4 days is a must.
