Bear Valley Campground offers 10 spacious, first-come, first-served sites along Bear Valley Creek at 6,400 feet elevation, ideal for anglers and paddlers seeking access to the creek and nearby Salmon River float trips.

Basic amenities include vault toilets, fire rings with available firewood, and picnic tables, though potable water and trash service are not available—pack out all garbage.

The campground is open mid-June through September, located 12 miles west of Highway 21 via Forest Road 579, and often fills on weekends during peak season.
