Ginseng is one of the most venerable herbs. It has been in continuous use in China, to restore vital energy, for over 2000 years. There are actually three different herbs commonly called ginseng - Asian ginseng (Panax ginseng), American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius), and Siberian ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus). The last herb is actually not ginseng at all although it is believed to function in a similar way.

Actually what is commonly known as a "cloud forest" is an example of "lower mountain rain forest" which are found around the very tops of volcanoes. Here the forest has shrunk in stature, with the canopy at 35 to 30 meters tall, but with occasional oaks reaching upwards of 50 meters at the lower altitudes. Buttresses on trees are uncommon, and the understory is dense. The ground is covered with moss and herbaceous plants.

Black bear sightings on the Daniel Boone National Forest and throughout eastern Kentucky are increasing. The bears are expanding their range into Kentucky from the neighboring states of Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia. Black bears are typically shy and prefer to avoid conflicts with dogs and humans. As with any wild animal, however, take precautions and never approach a black bear. When camping, store food and garbage away from your campsite in areas that are not accessible to bears.
