Ah yes, I missed that conversation. FYI: The Pringles was invented in the late 40s by ONE man, Fred Bauer of Cincinnati. He was an employee of P & G & his boss' came to him & said "Invent a new type of potato chip"

If you watch the food network, & have seen the special on Pringles, they always say "Fred Bauer & his team" Fred was the entire "Team". He Invented: the recipe, the machine that produced (& cooked) the "Crisp" & that wonderful tube / can.

In fact, Fred is buried in a "Original flavor" Pringles can. Fried died at home in 2008.

ok here it is! i have coordinates for the moonville tunnel trail and every coordinate along the way.
the first coordinate is for the trail down the ridge to a road. it is after campsite C.
N 39 18.829 W 82 19.258
this should be right on the main trail. from here you will need to find the trail that follows straight down the ridge its not easy to see and is back aways from the trail before you;ll start to see a beaten path.
if you follow that it will send you down to a road the coordinates for where that trail comes out on the road are
N 39 19.833 W 82 19.002
take the road to the left. and you'll run into a red bridge before crossing the bridge on the left side of the road theres a little trail back to the tunnel along the river. i believe you;ll be heading downstream. and the tunnel coordinates are
N 39 18.829 W82. 19.258
its well worth the trip and man it does look like a good swimming hole! i wanted to jump in so bad last time but the mosquitoes were to bad for me to be running around in my skivvys
i hope that works out for you guys its a steep walk back up i'd consider leaving the packs at the top.

Sounds like this is a 2-fer... any one have a GPS they can bring along? I think it will make one HECK of a day hike!

I do. I'll plug this info in and bring along.

Rtram, me and lukesteg do night short night hikes and leave pretty early in the morning fairly frequently. Planning an AT hike I'm assuming you have a ground set up? You're more than welcome to come along. You could camp in your ground set up but test out ours, see how we set up, etc. If not I'm sure we'll have another hang soon.

I'm very sorry I won't be able to be there this weekend, Sure sounds like fun. next time for sure. Thanks

Rtram, I was more so talking another time. Were averaging about every other week I'd say. Its nice because it doesn't affect anyones schedule. Leave at 8:30pm, home in columbus by 11am. But it may be more beneficial to come out when there's 10 setups oppose to 2.
