Just one of many displays in the Wolf Creek National Fish Hatchery welcome area. Volunteers are always welcome to help host visitors. This display says, "Lake Cumberland stretches 100 miles behind the Wolf Creek Dam. The result of Lake Cumberland being formed was the addition of 55,000 acres of newly formed water. Lake Cumberland consists of 3 layers of water behind the dam. The top layer is the Flood Control Pool. The second layer is the Power Pool. The third and final layer is the Conservation Pool."

Downtown Glens Fork is a lonely place without activities at the unique country store, "Hardscratch General Store," which was severely damaged in August when a single-vehicle wreck happened right on their doorstep. 20-year-old Alex James Tidwell lost control of his vehicle and it flipped on its side. Authorities say slick road conditions from rainfall likely caused the wreck. The owners are Tim and Sherry Kelly. Comments | Permalink Older Photos
