Description Suggest change

This magical area is known for its exceptional Sinagua habitation sites as well as its seasonal waterfalls. Most climbers come here to Tiptoe Through the Two Lips en route to the summit of the Three Sisters, a distinct tri-peaked spire complex on the second tier. Smaller spires exist in the vicinity.

Getting There Suggest change

Hike the Long Canyon trail for approximately 1.7 miles until directly below the Three Sisters, then head up to the base of the formation. The last part is a short (~10 min) bushwhack with faint social trails here and there.
