Bear Creek winds for over 20 miles through the Ozark hills, before joining the Buffalo River. This crossing point is usually a shallow, rocky ford that's relatively easy to manage unless it's been raining. If the water is high enough that you can't see the bottom of the creek, it's best to find an alternative spot to cross.
