Appalachian History Series – Little Shepherd Trail: Inspiration Mountain on the Spine of Pine Mountain If you ease your car out of the Clover Fork valley and up US 421, there is a point where the pavement breaks over the spine of Pine Mountain and a narrow road slips away along the crest. Locals call it the Little Shepherd Trail.

In tourism copy it is sometimes called a hidden gem.

Appalachian Figures Series – The Story of Sam Smith of Perry, Kentucky In the mountains around Hazard, Kentucky, the name Sam Smith shows up everywhere in the records. Nineteenth century tax lists and cemetery stones carry it. So do twentieth century rosters and modern police reports. For basketball fans in eastern Kentucky, though, Sam Smith means one man in particular.
