Description
The Eggs is a concentrated area of intermediate problems and boulders that is a good place to begin at Three Sisters. The first boulder sits right off of the trail with several more boulders strewn throughout the hillside. A 10 minute easy hike from the trailhead makes this a great way to get out and climb in a beautiful location.
Getting There
Park in the first parking lot (as you come from the east side or CO Hwy 73). Follow “Hidden Fawn Trail” for 10-15 minutes of easy hiking. You will come across a large block on your right (contains a couple bolted TR anchors), continue past this for 50 yards and the eggs sit off to the right in clear view less then 25 yards off of the trail. The other boulders in this area are up the hill and to the right of the trailside boulder.
