Faith, Hope and Charity.
"There had been quite a heavy snowstorm in the
night, and when we got up in the morning and looked out of the tent I noticed
each of the three peaks had a heavy veil of snow on the north side and I said
to the boys, 'Look at the Three Nuns.' They were called the Three Nuns for
quite a while but later were called the 'Three Sisters,' more Protestant like I
suppose." Albert Rogers
The Three Sisters were named by Albert
Rogers, a nephew of Major Rogers, the discoverer of Rogers Pass in the Selkirk
Mountains, in 1883. The name "Three Sisters" first
appeared on
Dr.
George Dawson's
map of 1886.
