The Historic Boone Tunnel is located along the Lexington to Harrodsburg road in Jessamine County Kentucky. Built in the 1870’s it provided a route through the Kentucky Palisades. The tunnel was abandoned in 1953 after the bridge that accompanied it, collapsed into the Kentucky River. Today, Hwy 68 crosses a new bridge, and route that bypasses the cliff the tunnel passes through.

Pilot Knob Sunset near Westbend and Clay City, Kentucky. Pilot Knob sits on the edge of two regions, the Outer Bluegrass, and the foothills of the Appalachia Mountains. As seems appropriate the area is known as the Knobs, where hundreds of isolated cone shaped hills capped with erosion resistant limestone and sandstone rise above the surrounding forested valleys.
