Trail Overview
Grouse Forest Road is a minimum maintenance road lined by thick brushy forest habitat favored by grouse. You will likely see some standing in the middle of the trail at dawn and dusk. Be careful not to hit them because they seem to wait until the last second to flush. The road itself is mostly sand and dirt with loose rock throughout. There is a corduroy section that has had some erosion on it recently. One part frequently holds water, but it's generally shallow and clear to the bottom. 4x4 and SXS access ends at the Y in the trail.
Difficulty
There's nothing that's truly an obstacle on this road, but it does get rough in the corduroy section, and there is a shallow water crossing/mud hole.
