On our last day in Kentucky we went hiking at the Red River Gorge in the Daniel Boone National Forest. I was giddy about being in a National Forest in another state.

We ran into the Shelltowee Trail which is a 319 mile backpacking/hiking trail thru Kentucky and Tennessee. Shelltowee is the name that the Cherokee Chief gave Daniel Boone. It means Big Turtle. Maybe some day I can backpack part of it.

The gorge has all these natural bridges that you can walk around, over and through. We hiked about 5 miles total down about 5 different trails.
This was a homestead from the mid 1800's.
