Sisters climb in May

I imagine something like this has been posted before, but I don't really want to go back and look thru all those, so hoping I can get some current beta

Planning on a 4-day weekend in early May, and would like to combine a couple of summits in the Sisters area. Middle/North....South/Broken Top?

Going with my son. We've done all the WA volcanoes, so have basic experience. Don't really want to rope up, but no problems with crampons/ice axe.

What do you think? Please pass along route info, and camping on the mountain.

Appreciate it.

The road to Devils lake (SS access) will be covered in snow at that time. Pole Creek road (NS access) most likely will have a long approach due to snow. If you have a sled access is much better to SS, BT and NS.

 

SS and MS don't require rope travel. Pretty basic. BT could be considered rope required but depending on your comfort level you might need one. There are exposed areas near the summit.

 

NS is often roped due to a steep traverse and summit push gully.
