Hiking the Oregon Coast Trail: (or How I Got Revenge on My Sister) - Paperback

by Ken Patton (Author)

If you drive on Highway 101 down the coast from the Columbia River to the California border, the distance is about 360 miles. Walking the trails and beaches is a lot farther, somewhere around 460 miles if you include those acquired while wandering around lost or backtracking when the trail is blocked by high tides. This is a good "starter" adventure for a guy like me, who dreams of adventure but is actually pretty timid and not anxious to experience real adventure, which too often includes things like hunger and fear and pain and suffering. I just want to have a good time.

Will I enjoy this hike as much as I dreamed? I hope so. It's time to find out.
