Sugarloaf Mountain
The start of the 2010 summer would be the last of my living in the U.P., so I decided to make the best of it and do some hiking. Sugarloaf Mountain was the first place I checked out. Sugarloaf Mountain is located just outside of Marquette on County Road 550 and overlooks Lake Superior. Sugarloaf Mountain consists of a 3,200 foot trail and stair system up to the top of the mountain. There are two different routes available for people to reach the top. There is the "Difficult" route for the more adventurous of hikers and the "Moderate" trail for those less adventurous. It takes about 20 minutes to travel up to the top of the mountain which is 470' above Lake Superior. No matter which trail you take to the top, it's worth the hike up to experience the breathtaking views of Lake Superior and Marquette County. Sugarloaf Mountain is a MUST do adventure when you are in the Marquette area.
