Comments from when Kristi and I first climbed Clinton in
Given the 2.5 miles of road walking from the trailhead to Wheeler Lake I did not have high expectations for our day on Clinton Peak. However I will have to say that the trip exceeded expectations. The views from the road, the high alpine meadows, the fun climbing and glissading on snow made for a great day. In addition the views from the summit were fantastic. We could see most of the Centennials in the Mosquito/Tenmile, Mount Massive and a behind the scenes view of the Climax Mine.
