  • Marrowbone Creek State Forest a Wealth of Resources by Lynn Brammer
    Marrowbone Creek State Forest A Wealth of Resources by Lynn Brammer Marrowbone Creek State Forest recently became Kentucky’s seventh state forest. The newly acquired property is located on the Metcalfe and Cumberland county line and is centrally located to other natural areas including Mammoth Cave National Park, Green River Lake State Park, Lake Cumberland State Park, Dale Hollow Lake State Park and Barren River Lake State Park. Visitors to the forest will find a wide variety of habitats that support diverse plant and animal communities. The tract is located in a transitional area and has a diversity of forest types. Tree species that are typical of mixed-meso- phytic forests, including oak, hickory, elm, walnut, tulip poplar, white pine, and hemlock are common to the area. The variety of habitats—from grasslands to early-successional woods to mature forests—provide forage and nesting sites for many bird species including wild turkey, ruffed grouse, red-cockaded woodpeckers and broad-winged hawks. Neotropical songbirds likewise benefit from the different successional stages of the forest and are prevalent in the area. The property also contains over nine miles of tributaries in the Green River and Cumberland River watersheds. Riparian areas, the buffer zones along these watersheds, are critical to the survival of many species located in this area. The Green River watershed is the fourth most biologically diverse aquatic ecosystem in the United States and is home to 151 species of fish and 71 species of mussels. The presence of two federally-endangered bats, the Indiana bat and the gray bat, add further significance to this property and the need for conservation and proper management.

A special thanks to the Kentucky Recreation and Park Society for gathering many of the photos found throughout the SCORP from Asbury College Adventure Programs, photographer Betty Smithart, Lexington-Fayette County Parks and Recreation Department, Louisville Metro Parks, and Kentucky State Parks. Other photographs are courtesy of the Kentucky Department of Travel (www.kentuckytoursim.com), Kentucky Office of Creative Services, and photographer David Nayes. Additional thanks to Dr. Bruce A. Larson, Dr. Fred Gibson and Dr. Raymond Poff at Western Kentucky University for compiling much useful data about local park and recreation departments through the Kentucky Recreation and Park Services Study. The assistance of the members of the Land and Water Conservation Fund State Advisory Commit- tee and the Recreational Trails Program Advisory Committee has been much appreciated. Finally, many other citizens across the state contributed some portion of their time to respond thoughtfully to survey research questions.
