Here is the schedule and route for Saturday and Sunday:
Saturday:
11:00 am: Meet up at Walmart off of US 33 in Logan, OH
We will not be making any stops for food or gas, so make sure you fill your gas tank beforehand, and bring along any snacks and drinks you want to hold you over until dinner.
11:15 am: Depart for cruise.
Here is a proposed map of the route: https://goo.gl/maps/oR6QqYk3aRu
Our cruise will begin heading north through the beautiful Wayne National Forest. We will continue on through the area and then south through Nelsonville, eventually turning back west towards the Hocking Hills area.
We will then head up to Hocking Hills State Park, where we will make a stop at Old Man's cave - the most popular stop in the Hocking Hills area. We will begin at the Lower falls and continue our hike through the cave to the Upper Falls. It is approximately a 1 mile walk.

Our cruise will continue through the area, as we head over to the Rock House.

Our route will resume as we work our way back up to US33. From there we will head over to the campground so that those who are camping can set up their tents.
6:00 pm: Dinner at Millstone BBQ in Logan.

We will be camping out Saturday evening at Hocking Hills Adventures. I will probably book two campsites for the group, enough for 6 tents. We can hang out, bs around a fire and so on. I will bring stuff to make s'mores and popcorn. Keep in mind that it is October, and overnight temps could get a bit chilly.
Sunday:
10:30 am: Check out from campground
11:00 am: Breakfast/Brunch somewhere?
12:00 pm: We will head over to the Conkle's Hollow State Nature Preserve. Here we will stop for a hike up to the top of Conkle's Hollow and around the rim trail, where you will be treated to amazing views of the valley below. It is approximately a 3 mile hike and should take a couple hours, depending on our speed.
