Sugarloaf is a Utah dumpster diver peak west of Nephi. I liked this peak because of its easy access off a state highway. If you happen to be driving between Nephi and Delta on Highway 132 and want a break, take a hike up this knob.

Sugarloaf from the upper trail start
Hike up easy slopes on the north ridgeline. No obstacles or issues of any kind.
From I-15 and Nephi, take Highway 132 West. After the first pass over the West Hills, the road continues westward across Dog Valley. About 1 mile before the road turns SW at a big curve, a gravel road turns left. (You�ll see Sugarloaf at this point). Take this road for 0.7 mile to your first right. Follow up to the saddle on Sugarloaf�s north ridge. Park here or if you have 4WD, climb left up a steep hill to the power lines and park.
