The Pharr Family Preserve is home to 1.7 miles of natural surface trail perfect for walking or biking. The trail winds through 66 acres of land protected by the Catawba Lands Conservancy. The property also features a canoe and kayak launch located 300 yards from the trailhead. More information about the canoe and kayak launches can be found in the Rocky River Blueway trail description.
The Pharr Family Preserve Trail offers a unique place to meander through a protected alluvial forest along the scenic Rocky River. Hikers will appreciate the rich diversity of this thick forest which contains at least 48 different species of trees. Sycamores, black walnuts, cottonwoods and bitternut hickories constitute the majority of the canopy. In the spring and summer, nature enthusiasts can observe many blooming trees, shrubs, and herbaceous flowers. Look for spring wild flowers such as blood root, hepatica and the subtle, but unique, wild ginger flowers. This forest is also home to a wide array of birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians. Look and listen for the pileated wood pecker which is our largest wood pecker in the Carolinas and is dependent on large, mature trees for its survival.

"The Pee Dee River, also known as the Great Pee Dee River originates in the Appalachian Mountains in North Carolina, where its upper course, above the mouth of the Uwharrie River is known as the Yadkin River. It is extensively dammed for flood control and hydroelectric power. The lower part of the river is named Pee Dee after the Native American Pee Dee tribe. The Pee Dee region of South Carolina, composed of the northeastern counties of the state, was named after the tribe and/or river. The first Europeans believed to have navigated part of the river was a party sent by Lucas Vázquez de Ayllón in 1521. They named it "River of St. John the Baptist."
The river was an important trade route through the Low Country from colonial times. The largest lumber company in the world existed at the turn of the 20th century near the river's mouth at Georgetown. The virgin pine forests of the Pee Dee region were cut over, and the logs floated in rafts downriver to be sawn into lumber and exported to the northern United States and Europe.
The lower part of the river flood plain was extensively developed for rice culture in colonial time; rice was the major export of the area from the port at Georgetown. Rice culture declined with the loss of slave labor after the Civil War, and increased overseas competition. Two hurricanes at the beginning of the 20th century destroyed much of the rice canal infrastructure and effectively ended the remnants of rice culture.
Today the river is not extensively used for navigation. It is an important source of electric power and public water supplies, as well as recreational use. While the Pee Dee is free-flowing in South Carolina, upstream in North Carolina, several dams have been constructed on it. The opening and closing of these dams causes dramatic swings in the depth of the river in South Carolina. The sharing of water between the two states has sometimes been a matter of controversy, particularly during period of drought. Some commercial fishing is done during the winter shad run, and for shrimp in the lower reaches. The river is excellent for recreational fishing and boating. There are numerous boat landings, yet most of the river is wild, with forests of tupelo, oak and gum along its shores. Herons and alligators can be seen along the way, and a lucky sighting of a bald eagle is possible.
The lower part of the river from Highway 378 to Winyah Bay has been designated a Scenic River.
Some tributaries are the Lumber, the Little Pee Dee, Lynches, Black and Waccamaw rivers. The river empties into Winyah Bay, and then into the Atlantic Ocean near Georgetown." - Wikipedia

[abstract] =>The Thread Trail Blueway segment of the Pee Dee River follows the Anson County boundary. Also known as the Great Pee Dee, this river is 232 miles in its entirety, of which 19.7 miles is designated Thread Trail blueway. Northwest of the Pee Dee River is the Rocky River which is also accessible to paddlers.
[isFeatured] => [trailHead] =>The Thread Trail segment of the Pee Dee River has three launches located along its course in addition to the Clark's Creek Access which is north of where the Rocky River confluences with the Pee Dee River and just south of Lake Tillery and two other launches south of the Blewett Falls Lake Dam.
Launch 1: Clark's Creek
Address - 177 Tillery Dam Road, Mount Gilead, NC 27306 MAP
*This access is upstream from the Rocky River and Pee Dee River confluence, on the Pee Dee. This is the northern-most access on the Pee Dee River.
Operated by NC Wildlife Resources Commission
Launch 2: Pee Dee Wildlife Refuge (Approximately 7.5 miles from Norwood; 9 miles from Clark's Creek)
2211 Griffin Road, Wadesboro, NC 28170 MAP
Operated by US Fish and Wildlife Service
Launch 3: Red Hill (Approximately 3.5 miles from Pee Dee NWR)
Address - State Road 1671, Wadesboro NC 28170 MAP
*From the intersection of US 74 and NC 109, travel NC 109 north 9 miles. Before crossing the Pee Dee River bridge, turn right on the access road.
Operated by NC Wildlife Resources Commission
Launch 4: Blewett Falls Lake (Approximately 16 miles from Red Hill)
Address- State Road 1759, Lilesville NC 28091 MAP

Trail Tips
Avoid the Ivy
Learn to recognize poison ivy, which commonly grows along the edges of trails, fields, and rivers. If contacted, use soap and a washcloth to vigorously wash the oils from your skin.

After approximately 7.5 miles downstream, the Rocky River confluences with the Pee Dee River and continues for another 19 miles to Lilesville, NC to take out at Blewett Falls Lake. At this access, the Thread Trail blueway segment of the Pee Dee River ends. There is a dam at Blewett Falls Lake, but no trail to use to portage around the dam. You can access the river below the dam at Blewett's Grave Access and continue a short distance to the Rockingham Access. Please view the Pee Dee River Blueway Map for more information.
Description
The Rocky River is part of the Yadkin Pee Dee River Basin, and the river forms the boundary between Cabarrus, Stanly, Union and Anson Counties. The Rocky River’s headwaters begin in southern Iredell county and terminate at the confluence with Yadkin Pee Dee at Fork Farms (Catawba Lands Conservancy has a conservation easement on this property) in Stanly County. It is unconfirmed but believed that the Rocky River is the longest undammed river in North Carolina. The Rocky River Blueway of the Carolina Thread Trail network is approximately 49 miles in length where paddlers can experience varying degrees of difficulty depending on the amount of precipitation.
On this stretch of blueway, you will experience what the Piedmont floodplain forest habitat has to offer a paddler visiting upclose. Over 50 species of birds call this area home, including some imperiled species within the region. Birders will enjoy the opportunity to see prairie warbler, Prothonotary warbler, red-headed woodpecker, great blue heron, eastern meadowlark, pileated woodpecker, and kingfisher. Paddlers may also hear the calls of the Cope's gray tree frogs, cricket frogs, spring peepers and upland chorus frogs or see over 10 species of butterflies like the Carolina satyr. The shoreline is trimmed with numerous floodplain trees, including the bitternut hickory, sourwood, cottonwood, swamp chestnut oak, and the black walnut.
This portion of the Rocky River is also very close to the Little Meadow Creek. This is historically relevant as the Little Meadow Creek was the site of the America’s first Gold Rush. For more information, visit the Reed Gold Mine.
