Norman Clyde Peak, Mountain summit in Sierra Nevada range, California, United States.

Norman Clyde Peak is a 13,970-foot (4,258 m) summit on the main ridge of the Palisades in the Sierra Nevada, between Middle Palisade and Palisade Crest. Its north face holds the Norman Clyde Glacier, and the Middle Palisade Glacier lies on its east side; both feed the South Fork of Big Pine Creek.

Norman Clyde Peak was named after the mountaineer Norman Clyde, who made the first ascent in 1930 by way of the glacier on the peak's north face, which now bears his name. The naming came after his death. The summit stands on the main ridge of the Palisades, between Middle Palisade and Palisade Crest.

The name honours Norman Clyde, the mountaineer who made the first ascent in 1930 via the glacier on the north face that also bears his name. The naming came after his death, so the peak stands as a posthumous tribute to a figure closely tied to the Palisades.

Access to the peak is reached from the Glacier Valley area south of Bishop near Big Pine, following established hiking and climbing routes. Climbers should be prepared for high altitude, mountain weather, and potentially snow or ice conditions depending on the season.

Norman Clyde made the first ascent in 1930 via the glacier on the peak's north face, which now bears his name. The mountain was named for him only after his death, honoring a climber credited with more than 130 first ascents in the Sierra Nevada.
