Road conditions were good. We (2) started from the browns peak trailhead at 6:30 am. We did the route as 4,3,2,1 reaching amethyst was pretty straightforward as was going back over to Sister. From Sister to Brother was more challenging as far as route finding. We stayed to the east side after the saddle and climbed to the Brother summit from this side. Staying in the draws meant fighting the manzanita so it seemed easier to scramble the rock faces. We then went straight down towards Browns and up the se face there. About 8:45 car to car with breaks at each peak. A fun, challenging day of route finding, bushwhacking and scrambling.
