Route Description
State Route 761 begins at a T-intersection with State Route 313 in northeastern Noble County's Wayne Township, where State Route 313 forms the western and southern legs of the intersection. For its duration, State Route 761 traverses hilly terrain that is composed of both forest and grassland. Heading northeastward from its southern terminus, the state highway passes T-intersections with Noble County Road 33 and Eagon Hill Road, then bends to the north as it crosses the county line into Guernsey County's Millwood Township. Turning to the northeast, State Route 761 now curves its way through a heavily wooded stretch through the Sycamore Road intersection, then runs northerly briefly to where it meets New Gottengen Road. State Route 761 runs northeasterly from there into Salesville, where it comes to an end at its junction with State Route 265, an intersection where State Route 265 forms the northern and eastern approaches.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
“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)
