    Hilarious and scary at the same time! Loved Dawn's comments and expressions throughout. She was practically running at the end! Trail was spooky and I was worried you were either going to be attacked by the bear or get lost in the woods. I just finished reading Into the Mist and had all sorts of scenarios running through my head. Thank you for taking us along!

    You guys are crazy fun. Remember if you are running away from a bear you don't have to be faster than the bear, only faster than the person with you. Happy Halloween.

    Ill never go in the tunnel to noware again. I went there in the summer. The tunnel was supposed to be a 1/4 mile long but it seemed so much longer. the graffiti really creeped me out. when I got to the end of the tunnel there was a tree laying over the path. it was getting so much colder than i was expecting. even though i could get around the tree no prob i decided to turn around and go back to my car. as i was walking through the tunnel at the part that was so much darker i heard three loud bangs. it was like thunder, but i thought there must be a highway or something overhead but i found out later there wasnt anything like that. As I got to the end I saw the same tree and i thought i must have gotten confused and turned around in the tunnel. I turned around again and walked through the tunnel again and i got to the end a third time and there was the tree again! I was really freaking out. I decided to hike down up the trail some more even though it was way later than I thought it would be and much colder. I thought I would be able to get back to my car by hiking around the tunnel. I thought there was a path that went around the tunnel like that. I hiked until it got dark and then I was really scared. I kept walking all night i was too afraid to stop anyware. I really had no idea where i was anymore but when the sun started coming up I found the end of the tunnel again. I was very frustrated but I went through the tunnel and finally came out at the beginning and found my car and drove home. The whole time in the woods was the creepiest time I ever felt and it just hasnt been the same since then (health problems with my kidneys). Your video brought back those bad memories. I remember some of the graffiti I saw and the tree that was fallen at the end of the tunnel is still there but its been cut back. I wouldnt go back again, you were very brave to go back. I could tell Dawn didnt want to go there again, you should have listened to her.

    i see you saw that 'Ricky Macchristen' showed up here and commented. their icon is a drawing of spearfinger.
    i guess thats one more location.... but are they referring to the tunnel, the trail, or backcountry camp 67? hmmm
