About
Bear Valley Work Center is a United States Forest Service administrative facility located in the Malheur National Forest near Seneca, Oregon. This site is not a functional campground and is noted in USFS records as being for future use rather than existing recreation. No camping infrastructure exists at this location. The site is located in a remote area of Grant County, accessed via US 395 north from Seneca, then County Road 63 and Forest Road 6300-982. However, visitors seeking camping opportunities should look elsewhere in Malheur National Forest, where most campgrounds operate on a first-come, first-served basis during the summer season. As this is an administrative work center rather than a public recreation site, campers should not plan to use this location. The Malheur National Forest offers numerous other established campgrounds throughout the forest for public camping use.
