"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

Nice tourProbably around 10 times in the winter ski touring. I tend to avoid this because of the snowmachines on the lower slopes and the trailhead road.

A variety of ways to get thereOnce again a part of the "run." This time w/ JP Lewis. This must be my 8th or 9th time on this bump. Today we hit Desolation Peak and went as far as Mt. Majestic before running out of time. #10 12-27-11 Part of Brighton Bowl run from Guardsman to Twin Lakes Pass. Lotsa snow and exposed boulders. #11 1-11-14 Mit Yz. From Guardsman winter TH. Some westerly winds. Went north and bagged Guardsman Pk and Scott Hill. #12 8-2-14 Part of mini ridge run which included Clayton Peak and Guardsman Peak. Wunderbare Gesellschaft später. #13 1-22-16 From the west ridge leading to the sub-peak, then Tri-County Peak and Jupiter Hill in strong south winds. #14 W/ Lana from G. pass after failed attempt to reach Sundial (high water flow). #15 and #16 3-16-19 W. Yadahzoemtn. Snowshoe from gate on Guardsman road, then to Clayton Peak, back and over to Tri-County before returning to car. #17 & #18 03-30-19 W/ WMC like on the 16th but not to Tri-County Peak. #19 03-21-2020 W/ Lana. From Guardsman Gate. Snowshoes all the way. #20 & #21 03-22-24 W/Lana. After 10420, Clayton Pk and 10420 again. SS all the way. Nice day but windy on Clayton Pk. #22 & #23 03-29-24 W/Lana & David Kolbo. Like 03-22-24 but with lots of fresh snow.

"Mt. Sienna"Climbed this with my 2.5 year old daughter on our way to Clayton. We decided since it didn't have a name, and this was her first summit, it should be named after her.

Fun morningI hit up Jupiter, Tri County Peak and this one today as I had the morning to play with and wanted to hike at altitude. I didn't do Majestic (Clayton) this time around since I had been on the summit of it back in the 90's when I did it during ski season. I'll get back to it and pick up Scott Hill on the next trip however because it looks like a fun one.

A bump on the wayI probably summit this peak 15 times each winter. Its just a speed bump on the way to bigger and better places! Love the wasatch!

Quick and easyI have been on this summit a couple of times, but it has never been a destination for me. The last time was a combination of Majestic, after I had done the Honeycomb cliffs earlier in the day. This would be a good peak for a workout if you didn't have much time.

A bunch15 times, always in conjunction with some big loop around Brighton. Starting with Silver and ending with Honeycomb Cliffs, I once bagged 10-13 10,000 footers (depending upon how you count) in just over 8 hours.

10420I climbed this peak several times on the Brighton Ridge Run and while climbing Clayton Peak.
