Bear Springs Campground is Currently FLOODED! (May 8th, 2024) | Mount Hood National Forest Oregon 4K
I did this on May 8, 2024, and part of the Campground was FLOODED - 5A, 6A, 1B, 3B. Since it was my first time here, I don't know if that is an annual snowmelt occurrence or extraordinary circumstances, but my instincts tell me likely extraordinary circumstances although I could be wrong. This Campground is scheduled to open on May 18, 2024, TEN DAYS after this Video Review and I don't possibly see how it could be operational for at least a portion of the Campground given the extraordinary flooding.
Bear Springs Campground is an unusually designed eclectic Campground. It is a GROUP Campground with 4 Quadrant Blocks - A, B, C, & D. At Recreation.gov you book THE ENTIRE BLOCK of around 4 - 6 Campsites!!!!!!!!!!! Candidly, when I reviewed the Campground, it was a last minute addition and I had not had time to research the Campground online, so I assumed by default it had the more of the classic Single-Party Campsite Structure that 99% of Campgrounds have. I will note the official Campground Sign does not say "Group" as most Group Campgrounds typically do, but alas. So please take my narrative commentary with a grain of salt as I was reviewing the area from a Single Family Campsite perspective. I added clarifiers in the edit once I learned it was a Group Campground only during editing and I do still think it is very worth seeing the quality of the individual Campsites contained in this Review so I think it still holds up, I just would have done it a little differently had I known.
There is also a separate Bear Rustic Log Shelter Group Campground about a half a block away on the other side of the Forest Road that I found to be the HIGHLIGHT of the Bear Springs Area with excellent craftsmanship! There is a Forest Meadow and individual Picnic Sites and on the other end of the Meadow at Indian Creek there are more Picnic Sites and a pretty awesome Stone Fireplace.
