Road Guide
- Best Season
- May through October. Fall color in the Appalachian foothills peaks in mid to late October.
- Fuel
- Fuel is sparse along the road itself. Fill up in Zanesville, McConnelsville or the Chesterhill area before you start.
- Watch For
- Blind crests hide driveways, farm equipment and deer. Gravel and mud wash onto the road in the curves after rain, and some corners are marked with low advisory speeds for a reason.
