Mount Clemenceau was first climbed in 1923 by D.B. Durand, H.S. Hall, W.D. Harris and H.B. De V. Schwab.<ref name=bivouac/>
__NOTOC__
== Routes ==
There are three standard climbing routes:<ref name=crdb/>
*West Face II
**This is the normal route, similar to the north glacier route (normal) on [[Mount Athabasca]] but considered more interesting. The route avoids the steepest parts of the face.
*North-East Ridge IV
*North Face IV
