Of the two low-key towns at either end of Vermont's southern corridor - a mere forty miles from east to west and linked by Hwy-9 -
Brattleboro
has the atmosphere of a college town, but no college, while
Bennington
has the college but not the atmosphere. The birthplace of Mormon prophet Brigham Young is marked by a monument at
Whitingham
, halfway between the two.
