Very cool experience.  I wish I went there more often than I do.  Certainly one of my favorite places in PA.

VTer - Ohiopyle is a state park along the Youghiogheny River.  Very popular place for whitewater rafting and kyaking.

Cool pics of the bear!  I'll bet it sure added something to the rafting experience.

That is a nice bear. I have seen a couple in the 450-500 lb range in the past week. Hope I get the chance to sit for one this year.

I live about 25 minutes from Ohiopyle, and work about 5 minutes away! Ohiopyle has more than a few BIG bears.  Bring your hiking boots though, Ohiopyle has some rugged land.  Pa is really one of the best places to shoot a really heavy bear.

I shot a 290 and it looked half the size of that beast.Hes looking good whatever he weighs.Your right though, after looking at the pic a little more hes probably 3-350.
