First look at the traverse over to middle sister.  About 700 feet down to the saddle and then 1k up to the peak.  Left (east) slope covered in dense mahogany.

There were 2 books in the registry- the older of which had been placed in 2002 and was nearly unreadable (it had gotten wet).

The newer one had a couple of entries a year (I was the 2nd summiter of 2011)- mostly from OGUL peakbaggers.

The descent into the saddle was a full on mahogany slog.  I was angling for that clear patch on the right.

False alarm- shifting back over to the ridgeline provided a clear shot down.  Nice view of the Sierra Crest on the horizon for the descent.
