Wilkie Sugar Loaf, Mountain summit in Cape Breton Highlands, Nova Scotia, Canada.
Wilkie Sugar Loaf rises 1,351 meters above sea level, featuring a distinct pyramidal shape within the North Mountain range bordering the Aspy Fault.
The mountain received its official designation in 1936, named after James Wilkie Jr., who obtained a land grant in the area during 1852.
The mountain holds the Mi'kmaq name 'Squa-dichk,' meaning 'the highest point,' reflecting the indigenous connection to this geographical landmark.
The summit trail begins west of Bay St Lawrence Road, extending 1.15 kilometers north of Cabots Landing Provincial Park to two observation points.
During clear conditions, visitors at the summit can see across the Cabot Strait to Newfoundland, located 115 kilometers away across the water.
