You may or may not enjoy knowing the story of how Greasey Creek got its name. According to legend, a mountain man named John Shell—once claimed as the oldest man in the world—shot a black bear, only to have the bear fall into the "Blue Hole," where the bear's body remained because Shell couldn't retrieve it. As the bear decomposed, downstream residents renamed what had been known as "Laurel Creek" as "Greasy Creek."
