Here's a diagram of the tunnels. Although I've heard that there are a
couple mistakes, in general this is accurate. Personally, my
favorite entrance to the tunnels is in Kinsey (although I've never
actually entered that way). The door's marked "tunels."

Go out on the patio behind the coffee house (just east of Kerckhoff).
Walk south (towards the math building) and watch Moore, which is on your
left. Just before Moore actually ends, it juts back east, there's a very
small driveway/walkway, and if you walk down it (east) there is a door on
your left (north) at the end. It was usually open back when I was there.
But it leads into one of the dirtiest areas of the tunnels.
If you go _inside_ Moore and down the stairs, there is another entrance.
Also, during daytime more entrances are open but there are workmen. If
you go to A-level Ackerman, exit the elevators, and walk forward (towards
the glass booth) there's a door on your left. Usually workers there.
I don't know what the status of Powell library is these days, but before
all the construction began in the early 1990's there was a door in the
lower-floor men's bathroom that went to the tunnels and was often open.
Some of the gratings (including the one in the bushes in front (North))
of Kinsey used to be open, but are now locked.
Back in 1983, the little building between Pauley Pavilion, Ackerman, and
the Wooden Center -- you know, the one with the bear on its lawn -- was
being built. It had a short tunnel under it (stairs in the very
south-west corner) which led to Pauley Pavilion; we got into a Kenny
Rogers concert that way. (Hey, not my favorite, but the idea is cool!)
But now I doubt the building is unlocked, and that tunnel did NOT seem to
connect to any of the other tunnels.

Nice! It's a cleaner copy than the one on my page. It's missing a
couple minor points (there are two different Moore entrances;
there is a grate on the NORTH side of Franz -- that's where I first
got in, long long ago; there's a grate on the East side of Bunche
with no ladder; the short tunnel from Pauley to the building with
the bear isn't shown) but it's an excellent map nonetheless!!!!!

Ah, yes. UCLA has some good tunnels. We've made some field trips up
there, and under-construction Royce hall with open windows (hidden behind
trees!) was the best place to get in. :)
Anyway, if tunnel maps are what you are after, I have about 6 different
schools on my tunnel page. The whole site really needs a major update one
of these days. I'll tell y'all when I do it. A lot of info and good links
there though. The UCSD map that I made works now.. still havent gotten
around to scanning the blueprints. I also have partial blueprints of the
northern section of UCLA's tunnels, incidentally.

Where are the two Moore entrances, I've found one of them, and this will
most likely be the one I use, but I don't know where the other is. I've
been told that there's one actually inside the building, is that true?
I have also found the one by Bunche, but now it is rather dificult to
get in there, they have secured it rather well, but the tunnel from the
Alumni Center to Pauley? Since you haven't been here in a long time you
probably couldn't tell me where, but if you have any ideas let me
know...

Hey all,
Thanks for the comments on the webpage. The map was originally done
by someone else (than myself who made the webpage). I should really
update the map -- *shrug* will probably do so after most of my midterms
are over with.
As for Moore, there is a door inside of Moore on the bottom floor that
opens into the tunnels. Last I was there, the door wasn't there (was
just an open doorway, for some reason), but I do believe the door
is now in place and locked.
Regarding entrances in general... there are lots of them all over campus.
Every building practically has a door leading to them inside the building
and/or a grate of some sort outside the building.
Happy Tunneling and stories always welcome (as I'll add them to my webpage),
...Eric

can some one post a FAQ for doing the tunnel thing? what to watch out
for, what to bring--trail mix, flashlights?, what to wear? etc?
thanks in advance,
