Sugarloaf Mountain
About
Sugarloaf Mountain is a summit in New York, about 4.7 miles from the town of Willsboro. The summit doesn't come with a set route, so most visitors will look to the trails close by when planning a trip. For timing, summer is the most comfortable stretch. A nearby weather station in Willsboro records typical July averages of about 80°F for highs and 61°F for lows. That station sits well below the summit, though, so expect cooler temperatures up high. Sugarloaf Trail is about a mile away. The climbing areas at Poke-O Slab and Poke-O-Moonshine Main Face lie within about two and a half miles, and Observer's Trail is a similar distance off.
