The highway's southern terminus was at State Route 290 south of Hemlock Grove.

After Liberty Lane, the former alignment of State Route 790 heads through a line of trees that parallel the highway.

At Turkey Run Road, there are some more houses, as the highway enters the southern limits of Hemlock Grove.

At Running Bear Lane, the road leaves Hemlock Grove and into Greentown, which is populated by trees.

The highway was turned over to local control, and the State Route 790 designation was removed.
