Amber needed Clinton & Reagan to complete the Spring Mountains 10k Peaks Challenge (and this was my second finish of the list). We met early and made the long drive to the trailhead, arriving as it got light out. We hiked up the gully between Clinton & Reagan, which has a lot of debris. It wasn't technically difficult, but did take time to negotiate. When we reached the saddle, we followed the ridge up to Reagan, then back down and up to Clinton, which has the better view (IMO). This is a much easier route up Clinton than the last time I was there. This route never really got over class 2.
