Alternatives -- From Marathon, an alternative with a bit more climbing is to work over to NY 215 via Muckey Rd. At US 11, go straight ahead on 221 across the bridge and tracks to Tannery St. Take a right for 1.1 mi. up to Highland Rd; take a right for 1.9 miles to Muckey Rd. Go right for 2.4 miles to NY 215. Take a left and resume the above route.

The climbing through Virgil can be avoided by taking US11 all the way to Cortland. This shortens the trip by 5 miles.
