The close proximity of the Three Sisters volcanoes, in contrast to the other large Cascade volcanoes that are typically 60-100 km apart, can be seen in this view of South Sister volcano from the summit of North Sister with the glacier-covered slopes of Middle Sister to the lower right. Mount Bachelor is in the distance to the left.
