Wrong Map Coordinates

[edit]

The listed position of this tunnel seems to me that it must be wrong. Egan's book "The Big Burn" has a map showing the tunnel southwest of Wallace. The NPS nomination description also says "southwest of Wallace". The indicated location is southeast of Wallace.

Googling for "Pulaski Tunnel Trail" shows numerous hits, including some on-site work and library research by Carl Ritchie (USFS retired).

Looking into this. Halmueller (talk) 09:44, 4 September 2014 (UTC)halmueller http://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/stelprdb5444824.pdf shows a location for the tunnel. My read of that location compared to the USGS 7.5' Wallace quad gives me a location of 47 26.694 N, 115 57.777 W, which I'll use to update the article.
