This is one of two Idaho peaks named Sugar Loaf. With its 800-foot, near-vertical, granite East Face, this Sugar Loaf the more impressive of the two. Surprisingly, there are no reports of rock climbing attempts on the Face. This could be due to the peak’s remote location or because, as one climber told me, the granite is rotten. The granite looks solid from a distance. USGS Hoodoo Meadows
