Railroad Grade Road offers easy and interesting access between US 95 and FS 206, also known as Little North Fork Road. The Grade is an easy drive on a good, two-lane, gravel road that is in reasonably good condition. It can be driven by any vehicle with reasonable ground clearance. Railroad Grade Road winds up from Little North Fork Road, tops a ridge, and winds down to the valley near US 95.

Because this is a major access road into the Idaho Panhandle National Forest, it is likely to be busy, especially on weekends. Although the road surface is in reasonably good shape, it is pretty dusty, and there are numerous blind curves where extra caution should be exercised. Dispersed camping is permitted, and several nice, existing sites are available to choose from.
