Clements Mountain. You can see our path ahead... those dots are people. Viewed from the pass, the peak appears quite similar to its neighbor to the south, Reynolds Mountain. In fact, the two are frequently mislabeled in photos. However, whereas Reynolds Mountain is a true horn, Clements Mountain has a long west ridge extending behind the imposing looking east face seen from the Visitor Center.

Clements Mountain was named for Walter M. Clements who helped negotiate the treaty with the Blackfeet which enabled the Federal Government to purchase the land that includes all of what is now Glacier National Park east of the Continental Divide. Norman Clyde made the first recorded ascent of Clements Mountain on 13 August 1923.
