Proceed to, and cross, State Route 374 running a short distance until turning left onto the Utility Service Road leading to a more single-track trail. At the Fairview Road crossing the course enters the Hocking Hills Organized Youth Camp and follows the gravel road until re-entering the forest at the end of the gravel road onto a more single-track trail which empties onto a short road run starting at the intersection of State Route 374 and State Route 56 until entering the Ash Cave Rim Trail.
