Five Natural Wonders of Kentucky

[@truthbknown4957]

Nice picks! Natural Bridge and Mammoth cave are two of my favorite childhood camping memories. When to both on the same camping trip when I was around 9 years old. I'm 62 now.

[@truthbknown4957]

My retirement dream job would be to be a tour guide at Mammoth cave State Park. I would get lots of exercise and be cool and comfortable while doing it.

[@chris2fur401]

Breaks interstate park is a good honorable mention

[@Amac1825]

More so in va than ky.

John Houchin is my 7th great grandfather. There is a terrific book by Norman Warnell titled: Mammoth Cave: Forgotten Stories of it's people. I actually purchased it in the gift shop at the cave. I am also related to William Hopkins Woolsey (6th great grandfather). This book was terrific for finding the sources I needed for the DAR. Thank you for the quick overview. I thought it was very interesting how the national park was created. I had no idea.

I love your music and your channel thank you.

[@KentuckyHistoryChannel]

Thank you for the support!

[@wanderingkentucky]

Great list! Red River Gorge is up there on my list, and Big Bone Lick might make honorable mention

[@Gary_007]

I have been to all of them except Black Mountain.

[@KentuckyHistoryChannel]

Awesome! You’ve got to check that one off your list!

Sad to report mining of Little Black Mountain at Eola, KY. Hauling gravel from Woodway, Virginia to mine site. They already are tearing down the mountain. Soon it will look like the moonscape that is the abandoned Scotia mine where all those miners were killed in gas explosion.

[@WesternKYBackyardWildlife]

It is sad. My husband lived in Eolia on Black Mountain. He has a beautiful tree farm. It's all gone now. His family leased the land from Blue Diamond. Blue Diamond didn't renew the lease, and now the land is destroyed. Very sad!!!

[@davidrice3337]

No -:they will leave it in better shape than it was

[@gregosborne2041]

Falls of the Ohio, in Louisville would be a good honorable mention!

[@KentuckyHistoryChannel]

Very true!

[@Hunter-yn1vd]

I wouldn’t put that over this though.

[@jimmcculloch5825]

Thanks for the great information on Kentucky. Your videos help verify my love for the Commonwealth.

[@KentuckyHistoryChannel]

You’re welcome! Glad you’re enjoying them!

Breaks interstate park in Kentucky and Virginia were I live

You missed mantel rock in Livingstone county…trail of tears went thru there and camped at the rock…

[@lynnandj]

Natural Bridge? Did you know the largest natural arch East of the Mississippi is in Creelsboro, Ky? Called the Rock House, it is located on the Cumberland River.

[@richardandrobertrobinsonth4763]

Based on span, the largest natural rock span east of the Mississippi is called Mantle Rock with a 154 foot span, and it's in Kentucky near the Ohio River across from Illinois. Rock House, aka Creelsboro Natural Bridge, is certainly a massive natural bridge, but based on its 104 foot span, it ranks as 7th largest of the Eastern natural rock spans.

[@Dispatcher-kv2im]

And the namesake of each county would be awesome!🇺🇸

[@KentuckyHistoryChannel]

Working on this one too! We’ve made about 40 videos about the people the counties are named after.

[@newman_LaRue_Jr]

LaRue co. Is named after my forefathers

[@jamesfstump]

Lived here my whole life there’s a lot more

[@judyjennings3426]

How about Western Kentucky? I live in that area.

[@KentuckyHistoryChannel]

There’s some great places out there too!

I was born in Fordsville - Ohio County

[@judyjennings3426]

@@davidrice3337 I live in Webster county in Providence. I don't know if this town still has it but Dawson springs has a small waterfall. Since the big tornado went through two years ago it might have been wiped out.

I would have switched out Black Mountain for the Bluegrass Region.
