I’m 6’5 and late 60’s. I ride rail to trails mostly and arms/wrists kill me. Any way to raise handlebars to take pressure off arms?

To be honest you bought a cyclocross bike which is race bike built specifically for 30-45min races… Comfort was not part of the build.
You can try moving the saddle back but lower the saddle 1mm for every 3mm rear.
Like the other poster said, this is an Inflite, not a Grail. The geometry and tire spacing is substantially different between these two models.
Having said that, I use my Inflite for all my gravel rides. I’m using 36mm tires, which is smaller than the guys I ride with, but it works, and I find the ride to be comfortable enough.
Your stem is right at the top of the stack, so you can’t raise it. And you have a one piece bar/stem, so you don’t have an easy option to change the stem for a shorter/higher one.
