Tips

This section of Coastal Trail between Coyote Ridge Trail and Upper Tennessee Valley Trail is locally known as 'Hurt Locker' for its steepness. It is of course fun if you're descending this mostly smooth hardpack/gravel fireroad (except for some deeply eroded gullies cutting across the lower section), offering sweeping views of the emerald Tennessee Valley below, down to its opening to the Pacific Ocean. And it's comforting to see the sign at the Tennessee Valley intersection that it's only a mere 482 miles along the coastal trail to the Oregon Border from here ...
