Grant was once a small community 1½ miles south of Olancha. A market, gas station and hotel once served weary travelers plying US395 to or from the Eastern Sierra and its recreational opportunities. Pack trips could be taken from trailhead points west of the community into the headwaters of the Kern River on the west side of the Sierra crest. A few old buildings serve as a reminder that Grant once existed, but you’ll only see reference to it on older maps. The Highway Department removed the highway sign indicating Grant within the past decade.
