| DC area's nearest mountain. |
On the prowl for another summit, and knowing I had not yet
been to the actual apex of Sugarloaf Mountain, I made a beeline for DC’s
nearest mountain on August 10—my third time there.
17. Sugarloaf Mountain: I followed the White Trail from the
bottom parking area, then cut right to the Green Trail for a scenic finish. The
upper trail climbs many steps and passes a lot of rock to reach the rounded
top. I put my feet on the highest stone and wandered a few yards to a good
lunch spot where the view west was well worth the trouble. Being that it was
Kris and me’s six-year anniversary, I scooted home in time for dinner plans at
Public House No. 7 in Falls Church, where our favorite bluegrass band, City
Farm, was playing.Miles (RT): 2.6 miles; elevation gain: 800 feet
Cumulative mileage and gain: 74.9 miles / 21,320 feet
