Well, life doesn't always go as planned. I will spare my blog readers the reasons/excuses for my squeeze and simply say that my four week trip has been significantly shortened. We'll see how far I make it.
With two long distance hikes under the belt I have more confidence in my abilities. Though, I still wonder how I will fare on this trip. I usually hike in the mountains on dirt trails. This time I will keep stride alongside the tides of the ocean. I won't be days away from towns, but walking through them every day. I feel that I have honed my packing systems, but I still wonder what I will want to change after this hike. I wonder what has worked so well in the forest that I may have to change completely to meet the needs of the beach.
Tomorrow I plan to set out from the northern tip of Fort Stevens State Park and begin walking south along the Pacific shoreline of Oregon.
Happy Trails,
