NO SNIVELING
Bryson City, NC
Tough call ...but if I had to pick one fast I'd probably say Harpers Ferry.
'Slogger
The more I learn ...the more I realize I don't know.
Nellysford, Va.
Roan Mountain? nah
can you even call it a town, to me its like an old west town full of hoodlums and naredowels (sp?)...I'd choose Harpers Ferry, such a beautiful place and so full of history, the river confluence is especially enticing.
New York City, although resupply for canister fuel is pretty lame.
Hanover, NH
Damascus, Va.
Lonewolf, you must be running for mayor with that comment!!Originally Posted by L. Wolf
Vice Mayor. In charge of gambling, prostitution, strip joints, etc.
ditto
Bryson City, NC...
ad astra per aspera
Not really, just take the Lincoln Tunnel west bound to Secaucus, hold the empty cannister in the wind for say, 5 minutes and voila....refill!
i thought lone wolf is the mayor of damascus vaneo
Three cheers for Bryson City!! Woohoo
Love your women like your coffee...... a latte
No place like home
The Forks, Maine USA or as we locals like to say "The Fox." RunRiverRun
I'd say...
Any place in America with Southern culture, Northern climate, Alaskan population density, mountains, forests, and pre-1912 political freedom.
Sounds like Alaska (other than Juneau) once she gets her independence...

On the AT it would have to be either Maryville, Hot Springs, Wesser, or Asheville.
On the PCT, probably Idyllwild, Bishop, Mount Shasta City, Skykomish, or Stehekin.
On the GDT, definitely Field or Golden.
Pearisburg

In Damascus? Where, Lonewolf? Just kidding LOL
I like it just fine here in Pearisburg. I can see cows out my bathroom window. I live in a county with FOUR TRAFFIC LIGHTS. I never want to live anywhere again where there's traffic. Super Wal Mart has almost everything I need. I can walk there if need be, although it's a road walk. If I need anything else, I can go to Blacksburg or Christiansburg for it, or order it on line.
I can see the case for Harper's Ferry. It has commuter train service that provides easy access to Washington DC. Unfortunately, the Ferry has gotten expensive as the Washington area keeps pushing outward.

Just wondering
What's the price of real estate in trail towns?
I'm sure they are not all $$$ like Kent and Salisbury CT.
