  • Kentucky Vacations in Your Own Backyard
    Kentucky Vacations in your own Backyard Today there are more than 50 Kentucky state parks, including Resort Parks that feature lodges, cottages, restaurants, campgrounds and trails for hiking, horseback riding and mountain biking. There are Historic Sites that tell about Kentucky’s history from prehistoric times to the days of the Civil War, Native Americans and the early pioneers. Many of these historic locations have museums or historic buildings that make great places for family visits. Recreation Parks feature campgrounds, picnic areas, swimming areas and trails. One park is an Interstate Park, shared with the Commonwealth of Virginia. State Parks are parks or protected areas managed by the states. Usually they are established to preserve a location because of its natural beauty, historic interest or recreation potential. The development of state parks in the United States generally paralleled the development of the U.S. national parks. The oldest state park in the United States is Niagara Falls, established in 1885. The first U.S. National Park was Yellowstone, established in 1872. Until the development of parks in the United States, the great areas of land with natural beauty and historic significance had only been set aside for the wealthy, such as kings and noblemen. National parks and state parks reserved the lands for everyone. The parks movement began in the United States and has since been accepted and copied throughout the world. During WW I, visits in Europe were closed to tourists from the United States and other countries. The theme, “See America First,” was promoted as never before and concentrated on the beauty of the American landscape, especially those in the western states.

  • Kentucky Lake Golden Pond, Kentucky
    CASE STUDY Kentucky Lake Golden Pond, Kentucky HISTORY Between Lake Barkley and Kentucky Lake, is an area known as Land Between the Lakes. However, its history goes back to the 1830s, when the area was known as “Between the Rivers”, as it sits between the Tennessee and Cumberland Rivers in Western Kentucky. After the dam was built in the Cumberland River in the 1960s and a canal was constructed between the two lakes, Land Between the Lakes became the largest inland peninsula in the United States. This area was designated a national recreation area by President John F. Kennedy in 1963. It is one of the largest tourist areas in Western Kentucky, and is the recreational home to boating, camping, fishing, and hunting enthusiasts. PROBLEM In 1932, a two-lane truss bridge was constructed across the Tennessee River. The bridge was built long before Kentucky Lake was planned, and in 1943, the bridge was shut down for five months to build new piers and raise the structure to make room for Kentucky Lake. Some 70 years later, in 2012, the main span of the bridge collapsed after being struck by a cargo vessel. After initial repairs and reopening, the bridge was deemed to be functionally obsolete, very narrow, and a continuing maintenance issue, so plans for the replacement began. This replacement is associated with a larger effort to widen and improve approximately 20 miles of US 68/KY 80 from the split in Aurora at Kenlake State Resort Park through the Cadiz bypass. US 68 is the only east-west roadway through the recreation area and the only crossing of the lake in Kentucky.

  • Kentucky's Lakes and Their Namesm
    • .._ < ~KENTUCKY'S LAKES AND THEIR NAMESM William A. Withington (University of Kentucky) (Paper presented at the Second Blue Ridge Onomastics Symposium, Roanoke, Virginia, May 16, 1987 ) ABSTRACT. A set of 107 major and lesser lakes situated in all of the state's major regions are the base in an analysis of the diversity of lakes and names of lakes in Kentucky. With a few e x ceptions, Kentucky lakes are artificial created by damming of streams beginning with Herrington, the first large lake, in 1925. Lake names have been grouped into fourteen categories. Three-fourths of the lakes have names in the three categories of Stream (30); community (27); and person (22). Terrain (5) and Administrative Unit (5) are the two most frequent names used among the other 28 Kentt1cky lakes in this study set. Kentucky ' s present landsca pe gives the appearance of a very well-watered terrain with many rivers, lakes and ponds. However, e x cept for a few water bodies in the lower Ohio and Mississippie River lowlands of westernmost Kentucky, the lakes are reservoirs or "tanks" --The U.S. Geological Survey's term--created artificially by damming s treams. Prior to the creation of Kentucky' s first large lake, Lake Herrington in 1925, mos t were small, usually associated with gristmills in need of local waterpower or with communities establishing water supply reservoirs . Beginning with Lake Herrington, c onstructed by Kentucky Ut ilities for hydroelectric power on the lower Di x River, a large number of lakes have been created in all parts of the state.

  • 2018 Fishing Forecast and Tips
    2018 FISHING FORECAST AND TIPS Welcome to the 2018 Fishing Forecast for Kentucky’s major fisheries. The forecast is based on 2017 fish population surveys, creel surveys, fish stockings, and historical knowledge of the fisheries. This handout is designed to assist anglers in planning their fishing trips and improving their fishing success. Additional fishing information is available from the Department’s website at fw.ky.gov or by obtaining copies of the 2018 Sport Fishing and Boating Guide available at most sporting goods stores. The Kentucky Trout Waters brochure is contained in the 2018 Fishing and Boating Guide. To locate fishing access sites in Kentucky, visit our website and click on “Fish” and then “Find a Place to Fish”. You will be able to search for your favorite water bodies and get directions to all major boat launches and access sites. Opening day of the 2018 fishing season starts March 1 with the new year’s license, so take a trip to your local sporting good store, get online at fw.ky.gov, or call 1-877-598-2401 to purchase your 2018 fishing license. The Fishing Forecast was partially financed through funds provided by your purchase of fishing equipment and motor boat fuels under the Federal Sport Fish Restoration Program. New and Expanding Fisheries in 2018 The lake at Southland Christian Church on Harrodsburg Road in Nicholasville (Jessamine County) will be added to the Fishing in Neighborhoods (FINS) program in 2018.
