Mount Clay, Mountain summit in Presidential Range, New Hampshire, US
Mount Clay rises to 5,533 feet elevation between Mount Jefferson and Mount Washington, featuring steep cliffs descending into the Great Gulf glacial cirque.
The mountain received its name from William Oakes during early expeditions to honor statesman Henry Clay, though a recent proposal suggested renaming it Mount Reagan.
The peak forms part of the White Mountains National Forest, where hikers follow specific guidelines including the Leave No Trace program for environmental protection.
Hikers can access Mount Clay via the Jewell Trail, which connects to the Gulfside Trail approximately 0.4 miles before reaching the mountain summit.
The mountain maintains two different official names: Mount Reagan according to New Hampshire state legislation and Mount Clay according to federal geographic records.
