Hi Brandon, A couple of additional pointers besides exporting as ASCII grids from ArcGIS.
Using r.in.gdal, GRASS can directly read ArcInfo grid files. When opening them, select the *.HDR file as your data source. No need to export. Similarly, v.in.ogr can directly read ArcGIS shape files. Select the *directory* in which the shape files live as the data source (no "/" on the end); select the shape file (omit the ".shp" extension) as the data layer. Again, no need to export. With both, depending on how they were made, you might have to override the projection info (or rather it's lack) in the ESRI file. But as long as you know that your ESRI file and GRASS location share the same projection, that's OK.
