Graham Mountain Part 1 with the Stank and my GASGAS. Graham Creek, Graham Ridge and Coal Creek Trail

The northern trailhead of Graham Creek starts off of National Forest Development Road 9 at the back of what looks like a camp spot. It meanders flat along a stream with a couple of easy and shallow creek crossings with smooth rocks. At the intersection with Graham Coal Connect, start heading southeast and the trail starts to ascend. It ascends steadily 3,000 feet to connect with Graham Ridge. The incline is smooth and steady, with no rocks but with continuous cliff exposure. The south end of the trail connects with Graham Ridge which takes you back to Character Ridge Road. Graham Ridge is located in the Coeur d'Alene National Forest north of Kellogg, Idaho. The east trailhead starts off of Forest Service Road 620 (Character Ridge) and can be connected with several other single-track trails in the area. The trail is narrow, with good traction, and mostly fast and flowy. It parallels along a fire logging road in dense forest and opens up to views of Kellogg. The trail narrows in sections with mild cliff exposure down the mountainside. The trail also widens in sections and gets rockier on a couple of tight switchbacks. Halfway through, the trail is uncut, (in mid-June), and riders must get over a couple of low-laying 12-inch logs. The track widens to road width and goes through a small section of private land through a logging section/lumbar yard, but there are no gates or signs. The track goes over logging rubble and over some more uncut logs. Near the west end of the trail, it turns into a wider single-track trail again, with a steep rocky ascent up to the intersection with Coal Cr. Trail. It continues past the intersection to the top of Graham Mountain for another quarter mile, and this section of trail gets very difficult in a talus field and loose rock. Coal Creek Trail is located in the Coeur d'Alene National Forest north of Kellogg, Idaho. The south end of the trail starts at the intersection with Graham Ridge at 5,400 feet, and steadily descends 3,000 feet to the north trailhead off of National Forest Development Road 9. The entire length of the trail is a narrow, shelfy, single track with significant cliff exposure. Only one small log was across the trail in mid-June, otherwise the trail was clear and mostly smooth dirt with no rocks. One rock obstacle half way through the trail was difficult due to the exposure and slightly off-camber nature of the trail. The north trailhead sits along the Coeur d'Alene river.
