A woman from Town named ‘Kim’ reports that a large – nearly a 400 pound Black Bear lives around her house up near Evergreen, just north of the lake. It once it even climbed up on her house! 

 

 
   

Several sightings up near IRONS, Cheryl who works in town tells how her husband was driving down “37” at night and nearly hit, (just missing) a very large 400-500 pound BEAR as it crossed his path.  He had to swerve, and barely missed it.
