Sugarloaf Mountain is a cool little knoll located 7 miles west of the City of Boulder, in the Front Range. The mountain is plainly visible from east Boulder and the surrounding plains. The summit sits in the Roosevelt National Forest. The hill itself is very bare and rocky, yet the surroundings reflect typical Front Range vegetation. The views from the summit are amazing, and the peak can be accessed from Boulder in as little as half an hour.
