The article linked here:

http://www.whiteblaze.net/forum/showthread.php?t=21074

says that there are nine towns where the AT passes through the "center of town." Does this sound like the correct list?

Hot Springs
Damascus
Harpers Ferry
Boiling Springs
Duncannon
Port Clinton
DWG
Dalton
Hanover

In that the Trail goes right past the Post Office, and about a block from Town Hall, I'd add Cheshire, MA to the list.

And maybe West Hartford, VT.

Trail is on the outskirts of Erwin, doesn't go through Erwin. North bound you come out by Johnny's Hostel crosses over the Chestoa Bridge and unless you decide to take the time thumb or walk to town, you'd never seen Erwin except from the top of Unaka Mountain looking down.

Depending on which road you take in, the Trail comes around half a mile from the center of town; it's a bit further if you walk to town at the main road crossing, probably around .6 to the main shopping area, and a bit further to the true center of town by the Courthouse.

Oops! I guess own's home is really not a town. But...I firmly believe the Trail goes thru it. Peace. :p
