Clyde Minaret
Clyde Minaret – the highest and perhaps the most strikingly looking peaks in the chain. We did this peak in a rather long day hike as we wanted to be there by the lakes (Minaret Lake specifically) before the sunrise to picture (you’ve guessed it) the first light. I should say the obvious.. Ansel Adams Wilderness is an incredible area and if you haven’t been – please strongly consider.
We did he peak via Class 3 Red Rock route, my memory holds it to be solid Sierra Class 3 with some moderate exposure (close to what Norman Clyde was) albeit we didn’t have to use any rappelling gear.
I also remember that this was the peak where I lost my gray BD helmet (it rolled somewhere of the south slope) so if you ever find it – please return. (it has a dainese sticker on it)
