There's a place that does Canopy Tours (zip lines from tree to tree) over in Hocking Hills. My wife took me for my birthday last November.

I did the Hocking Hills zipline tour last year it was awesome!!!! it's fun going in between trees high and fast!!!! The most scary part of the tour was the ride from base camp to the top! Felt like the jeep is ready to roll over the hills any second.

Contrary to popular belief, it's actully more fun to go on a rainy day... zipline goes much faster when wet!!! Gets your adrenaline pumping!!!
let's put it on the trip calender!!!

Looks like the primary difference between the one in the article and the one at Hocking Hills (besides the length) is that the one at Hocking Hills you have to brake with your hands. This new one has a different brake system. This one may be cheaper also.
