2022 Oregon Coast Thru-Hike

June 28th, 2022Stopped near Florence, OR due to sprained ankle. Made it halfway. I will return to finish the last half, maybe next year.---Backpacking the Oregon Coast. From the south jetty of the Columbia River at Fort Stevens State Park in Northern Oregon to Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park near Crescent City, CA.The trail alternates between beach hiking, steep forested trails, sand dunes, rugged cliffs, sidewalks through coastal towns, and some road walking and hitchhiking on Highway 101.I'll arrive in Astoria via train and bus on June 7th. The next night I'll take the bus to Fort Stevens and hike to the northernmost point of the trail the next morning. Then I'll head south.Route: caltopo.com/m/1B8M0
