Seasons of Jason<p>I'm going for it. This will be my first thru-hike! </p><p>The Oregon Coast Trail, a 400+ mile path that runs along Oregon's entire coastline. </p><p>Life is too short, the years zip by too quickly, not to chase adventure and the beauty of nature whenever possible. In less than a month, I'll be on that trail. </p><p><a href="https://layer8.space/tags/Backpacking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Backpacking</span></a></p>
George Steffanos<p>🧵1/3<br>June 5, 1983: Although the hiking was rather easy from that point on, the woods continued to be very buggy. The heat and humidity of the day were slow to abate as the afternoon wore on. The Appalachian Trail followed the ridge with no major climbs or descents to Vanderventer Shelter. It was 5:00 when I arrived.</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/backpacking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>backpacking</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/hiking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hiking</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/landscapephotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>landscapephotography</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/mountains" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mountains</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Tennessee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tennessee</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/forest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>forest</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/AppalachianTrail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppalachianTrail</span></a></p>
