Twisted Sister

Type

A steep south-facing trachyte cliff, The rock has amazing friction.
Lindsay Main discovered it in 1974, but decided there were less steep things to do on the Middle Sister. Joe Arts did the first two routes, Future Cops and Wages of Fear, both of which are already classics, early in 1994; then later that year Marcus Thomas took an interest. They happened to meet there one day and thereafter collaborated on the remaining of the easier routes during the 94/95 summer. The following summer Roland Foster, John McCallum, and others started working on the harder routes
