    Nomi, you need to start bringing your walking stick to test the ground and give you leverage. With overgrowth like that, you won’t see a hole or fissure edge, etc.. we don’t want you to take risks. If you have the equipment, use it to keep you safe.

  • @cbb3479

    Love the video ❤loved the beach especially! Quick tip along with using a physical marker that someone may move. Take a picture with your cell at the location of where to go to get out. The picture saves your location and you can also edit and write on the pic where you are and what signed to look for, sounds a bit much but was a lifesaver for me on a solo hike! Be safe and keep having fun 😊

    Wow……That beautiful “secret beach” you were on, was once nothing but deep waters of that sea you look at ahead…that was once part of the Pacific Ocean. Thousands to possibly even millions of years ago, it was deeper and higher, covered that entire beach you were on. Thousands of feet higher then were you parked . The “skeleton” black rocks you seen on the beach into the waters, to the covered mountains of grass were once under that sea. Just a secret beach with a huge history ❤😊. It’s secret for a reason 😉. I absolutely enjoy your content & journey. Stay favored & blessed ❤!!

    You’re correct. Beaches can be dangerous. While exploring a Pacific coast beach in Mexico, the tide came in so fast that I was nearly trapped on a rock formation blocking my exit. I was literally running for my life to exit and beat the tide.

    Hi Sophie,
    I am saddened that yor are feeling overwhelmed by life. Please know that God loves you and sees what you are going through. You will win in the end if you dont give up. In our struggles there are always lessons to learn and changes to make. Ask God for guidance and to show you decisions and changes you need to make in yourl life. Gods word says that weeping may last for a night but joy will come in the morning. Girl, just hang in there for the morning. love ya, take care

    Now that you may be hiking in more wooded, dirt/muddy areas, I recommend waterproof hiking boots. Those pretty hiking shoes are going to get trashed. The hiking boots have a firm sole also which helps going over rocks and roots.

    Suggestion… Look up the types of ticks that are most commonly seen in Oregon and be very careful. One of those is the rocky mountain tick. It’s almost square in shape and has a symbol of sorts on its back, but it carries rocky mountain spotted fever, so please be very very careful when you go outside to hike. God bless!!

Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Matthew 7:14 ..Glad you were guided to find it..... Natural beauty is a gift given to the humble and righteous in spirit to experience.. Thank You for sharing your gift with us all...Travel Blessings... You have some great shots in your video that would make for some great post or greeting cards.

  • @debrap9448
    @debrap9448 Рік тому +2

    Get the times for the tides before you hike.
    Because the Earth rotates through two tidal “bulges” every lunar day, coastal areas experience two high and two low tides every 24 hours and 50 minutes. High tides occur 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. It takes six hours and 12.5 minutes for the water at the shore to go from high to low, or from low to high. At most places on earth, there are two high tides each day. With each passing day, the high tides occur about an hour later. The moon rises about an hour later each day, too (actually, 54 minutes later). Since the moon pulls up the tides, these two delays are connected. As the earth rotates through one day, the moon moves in its orbit. A point on the earth must move a little farther than one rotation to line up with the moon again.

  • @DB-lj8qb
    @DB-lj8qb Рік тому +1

    Beautiful walk on the coast! And love the forest. The high and low tide are caused by the gravitational pull between earth and the moon, it won’t just change “all of the sudden”. You can always look up the times for high tide in correlation with what beach you are at and the time of year
