I have not seen a bear down here, but we do have some. The conservation guys captured 3 on the land along the upper river while doing a bear study last year. Thomasville down to just below Cane Bluff. It is very rare for anyone to see one, but they are around. I know of a few locals that have seen them on their land, but they live in very remote areas.

Thanks to all for all the responses. I was stoked before the posts, but now I'm foaming at the mouth! I've spent many days over the past 12 years or so on the NFOW and I'm ready for some new scenery. Like I said, I've been to the 11 Pt. once and have been wanting to come back ever since. Just wish I lived a little closer. Brian, I'll give you a ring sometime Saturday as we will be needing a canoe hook-up. I'll report back after the trip. Thanks again for all the advice.

2sheds - you ever seen any bear down there?

Me and a buddy of mine hiked the trail to Greer a few years back and saw a bear come crashing down out of a tree and run off in the woods ahead of us.
