Norman Clyde Peak, standing 13,861 feet (4,225 m) tall, is in natural company among the high peaks of the Palisades region of the Sierra Nevada in California. It lies on the Palisades' main ridge, between Middle Palisade and Palisade Crest. Norman Clyde Glacier on its north face, and Middle Palisade Glacier on its east both feed the headwaters of the South Fork of Big Pine Creek. It is named posthumously for mountaineer Norman Clyde, who first climbed it by way of the Norman Clyde Glacier in 1930.[4]
