Hey all, Just wanted to say a quick "Hi". My wife Victoria and I are avid hikers and have been excited about OCT since I stumbled across a book in the...
I hiked this over the last three days. Notes: 1) Day one, Thursday May 4. Trail head at Seaside - a little past the end of Sunset Drive going south; the...
Some generic tips I can think of: 1) hike north to south, you want the prevailing wind at your back. 2) You can camp anywhere on the beach, except within sight...
Great tips! ... Yup. I met a couple hikers that were headed north (south to north). They were not happy campers! ... The official word is you must be 1/4 mile...

OK, I finally located this campground. It's about 3 miles south of 'Storm Ranch' in the BLM's New River ACEC, or about 6 miles north of Floris Lake. The...
Thank you for the great information! 6 miles N. of Floras lake is a perfect place for a Campground. I have a general idea of where it is, so I'll have to look...

I am curious how many people on the list have hiked any section of the trail this year? I was planning on hiking another major section this fall, but our baby...
I was wondering if anyone could give me a few first hand tips about hiking this part of the trail. I plan for it to be the first part of the trail I hike. If...
See http://www.kenneke.com/~jon/oct for my trail log from Bandon to Port Orford (most of the way to Humbug). Make sure you stop in Floras Lake, it's a great...

Hello, Just joined the list because I'm looking for a May backpack destination. I wonder what's the least-civilized section of the OCT? I'm also generally...
