The rugged terrain of this area and virgin soil in the hardwoods forests provide the ideal habitat for wild American Ginseng. Wild Ginseng was so abundant in the old days that the original settlers named one of the mountains Ginseng Mountain, and many of the creeks feeding the nearby Youghiogheny River are called Sang Runs.
