- Mount Defiance is an 840 ft (260 m) high hill on the New York side of Lake Champlain, in the northeastern United States. It is notable in that the hill militarily dominates both Fort Ticonderoga and Mount Independence, but it was deemed inaccessible so never fortified. Mount Defiance was previously known as Sugar Loaf. In the 1777 Siege of Fort Ticonderoga, the British army succeeded in positioning artillery on Mount Defiance, causing the Americans to withdraw from both forts without a fight. Mount Defiance is located in the town of Ticonderoga in southeastern Essex County. (en)
- Le mont Defiance (anglais : Mount Defiance), anciennement connu comme le Sugar Loaf (« pain de sucre »), est une colline s'élevant à 260 mètres d'altitude sur la rive new yorkaise du lac Champlain, dans le Nord des États-Unis. Elle est située près de la ville de Ticonderoga dans le comté d'Essex. La colline est notable par sa position dominant deux forts militaires, le fort Ticonderoga et le . Peu accessible, elle n'a jamais été fortifiée. Toutefois, en 1777, au cours du siège de Fort Ticonderoga, l'armée britannique, qui avait positionné son artillerie sur le mont Defiance, oblige les Américains à se retirer des deux forts sans livrer bataille.
