    Companion forum thread to: Off-Season on the Oregon Coast Trail

    Tides, blowdowns, and sunsets abound as Maggie Slepian and two friends tackle the quirky and challenging Oregon Coast Trail.

    Nice write up and very descriptive.  Just due to the sunset over the Pacific view I’ve been debating on hiking this southbound (think the wind comes from the north mostly according to bike tourers) … despite the popularity of the region and roadwalk.

    Great writing, and kudos to you and your friends for staying cheerful and retaining a sense of humor when the conditions were less than ideal.  You did better than I would have.

    I read this from my chair, with sleeping bag, in front of wood stove, sipping hot coffee. The contrast somehow made your story a very nice read. Or was it simply your good writing and sense of humor? 🤔

    Nice write up. I’m curious about that spot in the picture, the steep grassy slope going down to the ocean. Is that the Thumb north of Lincoln City?

    Fun story, thanks! If anybody’s reading this and wants to check out the OCT, this is the book you need. Would have helped you ladies a lot, I think!
