The tower from Superstar is headed to Sugarbush to be used as a communications tower. Weather this is for on mountain radios, municipalities or cellular im not sure. If youre wondering why an old Heavens Gate tower wasnt used, it was either a total oversight during scrapping, or poor timing when the resort realized it needed a tower.
