⚡️Sugarloaf is on right now. ❄️☀️
This zone truly shines in the colder months—and right now it’s about as good as it gets.
Sugarloaf is an incredible classroom: technical granite face climbs that force you to trust your feet, and classic trad lines where you can dial in everything from gear placements and leading strategy to crack technique—jamming, stemming, and the subtle wiggle-your-way-up skills that make trad climbing click. It’s the kind of climbing that makes you better every single pitch.
We’ve been up here almost daily (minus snowy days), soaking up the conditions and helping climbers progress. With the most experienced and knowledgeable guides around, Lovers Leap Guides knows this area inside and out. Our owner, Petch, has also played a meaningful role in route development and long-term advocacy here—this place matters to us.
Heads up: Petch will be up there tomorrow clearing a fallen tree off the trail, so if you’re around, come say hi 👋
If you want a proper tour of Sugar Loaf or you’re looking to sharpen your skills—footwork, trad systems, crack climbing, multipitch efficiency, or rescue skills—we’ve got you covered.
We’re the local guides, and this is our backyard.💪👆
