Clayton Peak from Guardsman Pass.
Clayton Peak is also known as Mt Majestic. I suppose the two names will battle it out oer the next 20 years and one will come out as the one most will use for the mountain.
This was a before-work hike/run (mostly hike) but now that I live in Farmington, the drive down to the Cottonwood canyons severely limits the time I can spend on the trails before I have to get in to work.
With Scott Wesemann, I climbed from Guradsman Pass over a minor peak (still a 10,000 foot peak) then down to a saddle, then up to Clayton. Nice relaxing hike with some running at the saddles. Sister Hutchings made an appearance, eliciting many laughs. I don't usually keep strict counts on mileage for hikes, so I'll trust Scott's count of 3.40 miles. |
