Absolutely fascinating, interesting work.

As I'm trying to visualize this, are you suggesting miles and miles of tunnels dug by Dyar?

Can you create a graphic where you plot just where you envision the tunnels to be located?

There are miles and miles of tunnels! In the one link I gave, it specifically states that Dyar tunneled from P Street all the way to Rock Creek Park! That's why I included on location on P Street that is known, but he tunneled all along P, V, E and B Streets. So you can visualize by looking at P Street and then finding Rock Creek highlghted by the circle at the top of the blue line. It's the furthest location point north. If you want to do your own map, just put in P Street and Rock Creek Park. You'll get some idea how far this guy tunneled!

Thanks for the reply. I think your angle of research is great, btw.

Oh snap, I missed this part: "Reports indicated that the tunnels were long and extensive — that they may have reached as far as Rock Creek Park."

Have you come across any verification other than this article mentioning "reports"?

Using Google Earth, even a perfectly straight underground shot, it's a little over 3 miles from 2115 P to Rock Creek Park
