We were able to confirm the light at the end of the tunnel is the other end. The Elroy/Sparta Trail has three tunnels, the longest just over 3800'. This trail was especially appreciated as we were in some of the hilliest terrain we'd seen on the whole trip as shown below. We could only tell if we were going up or down hill by our speed. Sparta claims to be the Bicycling Capital of America with good reason, they're really cashing in on the fact that hundreds of people will come out on a summer day to ride through the tunnels. I was so impressed I did some more back to school shopping. Not something one does much of on a bike trip. As for Elroy, well it was a light at the other end, just a little dimmer.
