Well it's been 48 hours since the last mountain, so it's time for another one!
Now since it's a weekend and Brad owes me a "birthday summit" this summer, I convinced Bradley Mack to come along with us!
North Sister is all of our favorites because it's short (well, all mountains are short compared to Heitman) and has arguably the best views of any summit. The cut out of an old glacier in the back mountains, downtown Kodiak and the ocean, White Sands beach and the bay. It's a 360 degree panoramic bowl of eye candy.
The summit push is pretty steep but nothing sketchy like Pyramid or Heitman. Even though it was a bright sunny day, little puffy clouds kept creeping up on us like a wall of white and made it look very dramatic. And after a short hour and a half or so, we made it to the summit.

We had lunch on the summit and of course, summit snacks.
The way down, as usual, is beautiful and far easier than going up.

The fourth summit is complete! 3.17 miles, 1,821 feet!
