Sheltowee Trace 7: S-Tree Campground to Wildcat Battlefield and Beyond
This video depicts a southbound hike of the Sheltowee Trace, a recreational trail that traverses over 300 miles of the Daniel Boone National Forest in Kentucky and Tennessee. The section depicted here is approximately 51 miles long and was hiked over several days. This section goes through Wildcat Battlefield, Van Hook Falls, and over many creeks, campsites, bridges, cemeteries and other interesting landmarks.
The first ~12 miles was hiked in one day, where we placed a vehicle at our endpoint on KY-490. The remaining 38 miles was backpacked over two days, and we ended on KY-192 near London. In order to enjoy Wildcat Battlefield and other sites along the way, we recommended more than two days to hike that section.
This is part 7 of a multi-part series that will encompass the entire length of the trail, which travels through the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area, Cumberland Falls State Resort Park, Natural Bridge State Resort Park, Cave Run Lake, Laurel River Lake, and the Red River Gorge, in additional to the Daniel Boone Forest, for which it is considered the backbone.
Hiking in Kentucky has serious risks and are not limited to dehydration, animal attacks, serious falls, exhaustion, hypothermia, etc. Getting lost will obviously exacerbate these risks, so always bring a compass and map... and of course watch and subscribe to our videos.

Green River Bridge Investigation - EVP SESSION
This bridge is said to be Haunted, and me not being from this area, i didnt know much about it.. I have since found out that the area was once a battlefield, which makes sense since I recorded an evp saying I WAS SHOT and I AM BLEEDING and also I COULD KILL YOU
The bridge was under construction so I had to park a half mile back and walk to the actual bridge, which the only thing left was the actual metal framework, the wood from the actual bridge was setting to the side in a ravine next to the water
I felt like they were all around me, soon as I would turn my back, it felt as if something was RIGHT behind me.. I chalked it up to it being one of my first NIGHT TIME actual location investigations
I normally do EVP work from home, because I am under the impression from past work that no matter where you are, HAUNTED or NOT you can record evps.. once u put the INTENT out there that you want to communicate with spirits, they can and will hear you
If anyone lives in the Campbellsville, Ky area I highly suggest you go out there and do your own evp session.. this was about an 30 min session and I got all of these evps
Enjoy
