This is canyon country, and Grouse Creek Road provides exemplary views of one of the most scenic canyons in the area. It is a delightful, easy washboarded drive from the Grande Ronde River Road to Bartlett Road. After climbing steeply away from the river, it follows along the river canyon below the ridge line. Because the road is bordered mainly by private property, there are no opportunities for camping.
Much of the road is a single-lane shelf road overlooking green meadows and the canyon of the Grande Ronde. Realize there are severe washboards coming up the grade, dust, and blind curves. Logging trucks may be on the grade, but they turn off onto Grouse Flat Road at the top of the grade. To minimize further washboards, the highway department recommends 4WD up the grade if you have it.
