Length: 4.1 miles
Rating: Strenuous
This challenging trail is steep, narrow and rocky but well worth the
trip for the mountain top panoramic views of the countryside.
Beginning as a multi-purpose woods road, the trail eventually changes
to a narrow, steep pathway as it climbs 2,000 feet to the top of Grassy
Mountain, ending at an upper trailhead on Forest Service Road 68. Follow
the trail up a narrow ridge line and ford a high mountain stream to
complete the trip. Much of the trail is steep, narrow, and rocky.

To reach the upper trailhead, follow directions to Songbird Trail, but
continue on Forest Service Road 68 an additional 0.4 mile.
