Grater Rd is a mostly mellow doubletrack that connects up to some of the more interesting singletrack trails in the area. It can get marshy when wet in places, and climbs can be a little tougher than one might expect, but nothing is really difficult.

      Avoid at all cost. The other reviewer is right. There is no trail. This is as a HUGE mistake.

      Avoid! Avoid! Avoid! There is actually no trail to speak of here, much less a Green. if you are trying to make an "outer loop" and include Grater Rd. on the south part, you'll be screwed. You'll be riding through waist high weeds for 45min. Next time I'll use Skyline instead.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
