Twin Sisters Peak

After a turn-around resulting from slightly less than accurate directions from Google Maps, we made it to the Twin Sisters trailhead, on the easternmost edge of Rocky Mountain National Park. 


The trail was rocky but very well-shaded in the morning, which made it a very pleasant uphill climb.


Eventually we reached treeline and neared the summit.




Finally at the summit (11,4xx ft), we got a perfect view of Long's Peak (14,259 ft) and Mount Meeker (13,911 ft). 




And others of course :)





We attempted a group shot...



And if we squinted we could see Estes Park!



7.2 miles roundtrip. Twin Sisters- conquered.
