Sugarloaf Mountain will reopen to the public Tuesday with new policies in place, after having closed for nearly two months followingthat it had installed security cameras throughout the Sugarloaf site and that photos “will be captured of all vehicles that enter the Stronghold property, including tag numbers.”
John Webster, president of the Stronghold board of trustees, did not immediately respond to a phone call seeking comment Monday.The mountain had remained open as usual until an attempted burglary was reported in August at Strong Mansion, a Stronghold-owned structure on the property used for weddings and other events.
Since then, “things have been okay for us,” said Jeff Lund, sales director of Sugarloaf Mountain Vineyard. “We still get people in every day stopping and asking why the mountain is closed, which is hard to explain at this point.”
