I'd be interested in avoiding Seven Devils. Did you post a journal anywhere? I'd be interested in any Wed, 28 Oct 2009 17:51:53 GMT jon http://groups.yahoo.com/group/oregoncoasttrail/message/205 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/oregoncoasttrail/message/205 I think quite a few folks would be interested in knowing the alternate 7 Devils/Arago route! ;) Jon Wed, 28 Oct 2009 17:45:46 GMT capespring1 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/oregoncoasttrail/message/204 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/oregoncoasttrail/message/204 I thru-hiked the Oregon coast trail this past spring/summer, arriving at Crissey Field on June 28.

Having just finished the hike, I would like to add my opinion. If you bring your dog, you would probably Wed, 05 Aug 2009 01:28:49 GMT dmlagana http://groups.yahoo.com/group/oregoncoasttrail/message/199 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/oregoncoasttrail/message/199 I totally agree with this comment.
