Skull Gravel Grind
June 19, 2027 @ 5:30 am - 5:00 pm
The Skull Gravel Grind routes highlight the Harney County’s rugged character which sets rural Eastern Oregon apart from the rest of the nation. From long mountainous ascents, to teeth-chattering and eye watering descents, breathtaking vistas, open rangeland, alpine forests, two stream crossings, and – of course – cattle guard after cattle guard, this gravel grind is a feat to finish and a testament to the rider’s grit and determination.
Routes traverse miles of Bureau of Land Management and US Forest Service public lands, official partners of the Skull Gravel Grind.
Harney County is home to endless opportunity for the self-sufficient backcountry traveler. Visitors who seek challenge and solitude will find these in abundance.
