If you have taken even a short walk on any beach in Oregon, you have been on the Oregon Coast Trail. This wonderfully scenic and diverse trail extends nearly 400 miles from the Columbia River to the California border, with over half those miles on sand. Exploring the Oregon Coast Trail (OCT) provides the information you need to complete the entire trail, or to enjoy segments of it as a series of day hikes. This book also provides insights on chapters of Oregon’s coastal history that make hiking the OCT a special and unique experience. In doing so, it reminds us to celebrate Oregon’s open beaches and not take them for granted.
Highlights of the book include:
- Detailed route descriptions for 40 consecutive day hikes along the OCT, beginning at the mouth of the Columbia River and ending at the California border
- Mile-by-mile maps for most hikes
- Directions for reaching the start and end points of each hike
- Logistical information needed to successfully navigate the OCT, such as tidal considerations and arranging for boat rides
- Historical and present day photographs of places visited along the OCT
- Feature articles on the history and personalities that make hiking the OCT possible
A portion of this sale goes to Oregon Parks Forever to support increased environmental education, access, and healthy activities in Oregon Parks.

Iron-on Patch Instructions
- Prepare Your Garment
Lay your clean garment flat on a smooth, heat-resistant surface. - Set Your Iron
Turn your iron on, ensuring there’s no water inside and the steam setting is off. Set the temperature to 300°F or the appropriate setting for your garment's fabric type. - Position Your Patch
Place your woven patch (design facing up) on the desired spot on the garment. Cover the patch with a thin cotton cloth to protect it. A clean t-shirt works. - Heat It Up
Press the iron onto the covered patch area, applying firm pressure in circular motions for 10–30 seconds. Let the patch cool for a moment. - Secure the Backside
Turn the garment inside-out. Place the iron directly on the area behind the patch, or use a thin cloth to prevent scorching. Apply firm pressure with the iron for 10–30 seconds. Allow it to cool. - Check Your Work
Inspect the patch to ensure it's fully adhered. If needed, repeat steps 4–5 for a stronger bond.
Pro Tip: A little patience goes a long way! Let the patch cool completely before wearing or washing your garment.
