It's a long, downhill trek before reaching Rt. 131. You will then venture onto Barnett's Run Road, passing by 1-79 Trailer Sales and then head up the hill onto the gravel road. The course rejoins the asphalt and enters the Percheron parking lot, circling the building before emptying out onto the main road.
