I could be interested. Were you planing a traverse? Bivi or camp? Were you planing to bike in? I've been in there once many years ago in the winter.

I have plans to go bang out both of the Sisters peaks in one day:

 

(was turned around 2 weeks ago because the bridge leading to Daley Prairy had been torn out, and is now under construction. It should be finished now however)

 

-Mountain bike in, starting on trail around 7:30am.

-Gain the west ridge of the South Twin by 9:00 or so

-Summit by 11:00

-Down climb or rappel the north face

-Gain West Ridge of North twin by 3:00

-Summit North Twin no later than 5:00

-Back into the central basin, then climb back up to the base of the south twin's W. ridge. There by 7:00

-Back at mountain bike stash no later than 8:00

-18 minutes later, after hauling ass downhill, back at truck no later than 9:00

 

I added a lot of time here and there to account for lolligaging, so I know I could move faster.

 

I'm not usually into these kinds of timed trips, but I was turned back on the South Twin earlier this summer because I was stupid and started the day at 2:30 pm, and it got too late. Anyway, it would be a fantastic workout....
