Another ending to another hike
So.. my hike on the Oregon Coast Trail is over. I was 10 days away from the finish line. 10 days! But my dad hurt his leg, the season was coming to a close, money dried up.. shit just kind of happens. Obviously I was really bummed out that it ended to put it lightly. …

Initially I tried very hard to stay along the 'true route' of the trail but found it difficult when the only …
