Sugarloaf Mountain is a wonderful hike to 3781 Feet elevation on the Devil’s Path. We will do the full 9.2 mile loop and enjoy the varied woods there. The top climb section is extremely challenging. Views from the top are so nice. The downhill is difficult but so unique. We will exit via Pecoy Notch and chill at quarry chairs at Dibbles Quarry
on our way down. This hike is for the experienced hiker wanting a day of fall fun in the Catskills
