Description 

The brothers are the prominent twin peaks seen in the Olympic Mountains from the Puget Sound. The approach is fun and the peaks are beautiful. Many routes are possible and the rock quality is better than much of the Olympics although that doesn't say much. Routes are of the 3rd and 4th class nature although the traverse between north and south peak can provide an exciting snow climb that demands a bit of respect. Perhaps the biggest pay off of climbing this peak is looking down over 6000ft on the Puget Sound and Seattle and then turning around and viewing the interior of the Olympics.


Getting There 

From US 101 take the Hamma Hamma River Road to the Lena Lakes Trail head.
