Route Description
State Route 176 only follows half of that route, beginning at State Route 35 south of Fort Payne continuing west for 11 miles (18 km) before forking off from Old State Route 275 at Eberhardt's Point west to the Dogtown community. In the Dogtown community, State Route 176 (which up to that point followed former County Road 81) turns southwest at a four-way intersection along part of what had been Dekalb County Road 89. From there, the route extends into Cherokee County to State Route 68 near Collinsville where the highway ends. The road, however, continues south as Cherokee County Road 3 to Gadsden.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“By a route obscure and lonely,
Haunted by ill angels only,
Where an eidolon, named Night,
On a black throne reigns upright,
I have reached these lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule—
From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
Out of space—out of time.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
“Everything to which we concede existence is a posit from the standpoint of a description of the theory-building process, and simultaneously real from the standpoint of the theory that is being built. Nor let us look down on the standpoint of the theory as make-believe; for we can never do better than occupy the standpoint of some theory or other, the best we can muster at the time.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
