Alright, so I'm hoping I can get more info here, and probably faster, than I would be able to find myself. My question is what do a partner and I need to summit each sister? And which routes would you recommend to the top?
My partner is by no means a climber. I would say he is more of a hiker looking for a summit.
Can we summit South and Middle with basically just backpacking gear? That's the objective. Thanks.

Yes Tim, the South and Middle Sisters are walk-ups unless you really want to make them more challenging, and can easily be done in a day from your car. The North Sister is a different beast, being much more of a chossy technical climb.
