The purpose of this sub is to provide facial ratings of both men and women based on *objective factors* such as harmony, sexual dimorphism, symmetry, and qualities of their features. This means analyzing/evaluating a person’s attractiveness without regard for one’s own feelings. This is not a subjective rating sub.
2024.06.04 16:35 _FreeFaller Last night I completed the last bit of available content, and I'd like to gush about why I love this game
Abiotic Factor is the most fun I've had playing a survival crafting game in a very long time. I haven't enjoyed a game like this since the release of the original Subnautica, and there's so much about it that puts it far above it's contemporaries.
Last night I finished the last bit of new content with a friend I have been playing co-op with since launch, and we spent a while talking about how excited we were for the next update. I'd like to put into writing some of the things that I think makes the game a great experience, in no particular order. I'll be speaking broadly about most everything in the game so far, so expect some spoilers if you're still going through it.
Influences and Concept: I fucking love half life. I am familiar with SCP but never really got into it. When I heard there was a survival game where you play as an HL1 scientist, it caught my attention immediately. ABF perfectly captures the feeling of exploring Black Mesa: a sprawling, mysterious facility of seemingly impossible size with hazards around every corner, with safe havens nestled firmly between imminent danger. It's SCP influence accentuates all this very nicely and adds an x-factor to the exploration and mood of the game. ABF knows exactly what made HL funny and leans into that heavily, and it's hilarious to put balding science geeks up against horrors from beyond our dimension. But in addition to being funny, this game is legitimately terrifying. I don't think I'll ever forget my first Leyak encounter, a composer breaking through a doorway into an area we thought was safe, or teleporting into the furniture store and realizing what that banging sound was behind us. Everything comes together to create an atmosphere that can in one moment be funny and lighthearted and in another moment, unsettling and horrifying, in way that feel natural and appropriate for the concept. As small side note, I really love how all the crafted items feel very improvised and jury rigged. Creative and fits quite well.
The Order: When I started playing I immediately infered that there would eventually be some sort of human military faction in the game, and I assumed they would be in the vein of half life/SCP- tacticool special forces grunts on a black ops mission to tie up loose ends. The Order is a lot more interesting than that to me, in both their presentation and their goals. I really love their mysterious occult ways, the use of Latin, the outfits of some of the higher ranking guys, but most of all their mission. They're not here for you, you're just in the way. It's a great dynamic and I'm very interested to see their place in the rest of the story, especially after some of the stuff near the end of the game.
The Content: I cannot believe how much is in this game as an early access launch. The sectors are HUGE, but also well connected with shortcuts in a way that doesn't make traversing them feel like a pain in the ass. But beyond the size of the physical space of the game, there are so many systems in the game that already feel very fleshed out or at the very least a solid foundation to build upon. There's also just systems that I wouldn't expect for something so early in it's early access that add a lot to the game, stuff like food bonuses, armor sets, transmog, advanced cooking recipes, etc. Obviously it's not perfect (please make throwing XP based off damage instead of items thrown, I used grenades constantly and still only got to level 2) but there's already a ton of good stuff to iterate upon. And beyond all the actual gameplay elements, the amount of story, lore, world building, and voice acting already in the game really impressed me. A lot of EA games will typically hold back on that kind of thing in early builds but ABF knew how important it was to the setting and put in the work.
Final thoughts: I think by this point it's clear how excited I am for whatever comes next. ABF is not a game that comes around often and I truly believe the team behind it has something special on their hands here. If you have something you liked about the game you thought I missed, I'd love to read it in the comments.

Hello there!
I have few questions for you!
Do you feel like there are people around but they somehow feel alien and you are not really comfortable around them? You would rather have someone that you can be yourself around? Someone who is not your friend just because they are bored? - Yeah me too!
Do you maybe miss that rush of excitement when you discuss something completely dumb or you are on your way to make a discovery of a century that arose in a restroom? - Yeah me too!
Do you go through and think or find interesting things and there is this strange emptiness? Feels like it's not as exciting as it was in the moment? Having someone that would share that excitement at that moment sounds like it would make things better? - Yeah me too!
Do you maybe feel like there was a point where you played video games and had the biggest blast? You were talking about it non stop and were trying to figure out how to proceed and theorycrafting and can't wait to jump in voice chat when you are done with the day? And now its somehow lacking? Maybe if you think about it, there was someone who shared that excitement and that made a huge difference? - Yeah me too!
Do you maybe get a bit clingy once you get comfortable and almost spam the other person, care about the other person to a point that you are actively interested in being involved in the others life and vice versa, having someone you can be comfortable with to a point that it doesnt matter if your social battery is high or low, because there is no need, maybe share that secret and know its safe, do you LOVE gaming daily? - Yeah me too!
Do you like the idea of doing some other activities together based on our mood, maybe just chilling for the evening and watching the other person trying to drop something with a low chance and rooting, or maybe watching movies / tv series, the idea of establishing some activities or maybe challenges sound good? - Yeah me too!
Me with decent english as second language, loving gaming and other things nerd related, silliness, dad jokes and memes, discussions about ANYTHING once comfortable, online big part of the day (or on a phone), usually chill but can have overthinking moments.
Few games / genres that I enjoy (or enjoyed in the past and might want to revisit at some point: WoW (big part of my life, but played other mmos aswell), COOP (we were here, trine, it takes two, a way out, human fall flat... just LOVE those to play with a friend where we are both involved! Still waiting to play stardew and other games with someone), Survival (Enshrouded, Abiotic factor, Grounded, The forest, Terraria, MC, Core keeper...), rpg's (BG3, TES, Fallout..), Factory sims (Satisfactory, Factorio, ..), ARPG's (Diablo, PoE, No rest for the wicked..), Roguelikes, City sims, open world, tabletop (sim), DnD.. and much much more. Not really into "ladder" pvp grinding.
Honorable mention: I think a good starter is to talk a bit to get to know each other a bit and soon pick up a game as I feel like games are pretty good ice breakers if chosen well. Right now I would be down to play some Abiotic factor (just bought it), Enshrouded, Core keeper, we were here series, maybe stardew valley or factory sim. (Also wow is a bit of a plus always especially pve farming and collecting stuff).
Just send me a DM and tell me a bit about yourself! As a starter you can answer the questions or just some of them and tell me a bit about yourself!

2024.06.03 21:13 Identify_my_sword What is the size of each sector?
Trying to stay spoiler free here as I have not looked up anything abiotic factor related, so hoping someone here can answer.
My group has finished the office sector and moved into manufacturing west. We did a small portion of content here like a portal "world" and talked to the blacksmith and that is pretty much it. I believe there are 3 sectors, and office sector was pretty quick and easy and relatively small. Is this sector significantly larger than the office sector?
Should I assume we are more than 1/3rd of the way through the game? I am hoping we are more like 1/10th of the way.

2024.06.03 07:48 Beautiful_Swimmer_91 Does this game have linear story progression?
I'm currently playing through Abiotic factor and I'm new to the genre of survival crafters does this game also have a story to go through or are you just wandering around progressing to get the the "end game" like ark survival and other crafters like that.

2024.06.03 07:48 Rude-Lettuce-8982 Are video games getting worse for misophonia sufferers?
Aside from the recent inclusion of 'misophonia mode' in the options menus of some games. I feel like every new indie title these days has some sort of high treble, hyper visceral squelching, splashing, typing, munching or gulping noises. Im watching/listening to a streamer play 'Cryptmaster' and it's obnoxious. No eating sounds but squelching randomly and water 'plonking' and swishing/splashing for just chucking a fishing line in the water (?????). It sounds much more intense than real life and more intense than other video games or films. Abiotic Factor (this one has the miso mode I think) has awful sounds as well. Funny enough, 7 days to die, a game in development for 10 years (an example of an older game), has much more muted and quieter eating sounds.

2024.06.03 01:10 syzygysd Parallels vs Crossover for Steam
Just getting into some light gaming on my M1 Pro MacBook. I already have Parallels installed for some work applications. My son would like me to play Abiotic Factor with him. I downloaded the trial of Crossover and have had pretty decent success with running Steam and Abiotic. However, I’m not sure I want to spend $74 on a license. Parallels loads Steam just fine, but once I load Abiotic, the in game graphics are fooked. I’ve tried some suggestions with adding a phrase to the boot options but haven’t got it to work. I’d like to use Parallels because the license is paid for. Any suggestions?

2024.06.01 23:39 TheReaver545 Some Testing of the radio pack and how much it helps.
So yesterday there was this post on confusion about how much the radio pack "helps" in terms of power drain.Here. So I spent the past hour or so with a stopwatch in one hand and staring at paint dry while I waited for the electronics battery's to deplete.
Some people claimed it helped with the arc thrower some claimed it helped with the vacuum well I put both to the test and both came back as not being useful. One item I was actually surprised that it wasn't affected by the backpack.
Thermal spear without radio pack: 50 hits before empty, with radio pack 100 hits. Double effectiveness. Same results with thermal mallet
Arc Thrower without radio pack: Lasts 45 seconds, with radio pack lasts: 45 seconds. No change.
Vacuum without radio pack: Lasts 40 seconds, with radio pack lasts 40 seconds. No change. Second test. With power pack lasted 50 seconds??? "Discrepancy detected" Without power pack 50 seconds??? Third test 52 seconds either way??? 4th test 50 seconds either way??? How did I get 40 seconds on the first check?!?!? Either way its unaffected by the radio pack. May have anomalous properties with its power consumption. Further testing may be required.
Makeshift Headlamp without radio pack: Lasts 4 minutes and 10 seconds per 250 power for a total time of 12 minutes and 30 seconds. With the Radio pack 6 minutes and 15 seconds per 250 power, 18 minutes and 45 seconds total. effective increase of 50%
Lantern without radio pack: Lasts 1 minute and 40 seconds per 100 power for a total time of 16 minutes and 40 seconds. With radio pack lasts 1 minute 40 seconds per 100 power, in total 16 minutes and 40 seconds. No effective change.
Flashlight: Without radiopack : Lasts 1 minute and 40 seconds per 100 power for a total time of 8 minutes and 20 seconds. With radio pack it lasts 2 minutes and 30 seconds per 100 power, for total time of 12 minutes and 30 seconds. Effective increase of 50%.
Makeshift headlamp, lantern and flashlight all have a base power consumption of 1 power per second without the radio pack. Themal spear and Thermal mallet use two power per hit without the backpack and 1 power per hit with the backpack.
Now take this test with a grain of salt. I haven't seen anyone else post test results so if someone else wants to run a few tests of their own with various power draining items with and without the radio pack that'd be helpful. Nothing here is conclusive as the game is still early access and there may be bugs.

2024.06.01 11:35 Streltana 24/PC/UK/GMT - Looking to form a long-term close friendship to game and chat often!
Heya! I would love to make a new friend who would like to be part of a small group of friends who play and talk to eachother often as i've found some great friends on reddit before so I wanted to try my luck again. I play pretty much daily, mostly in the evenings and till late when I can if im not working or busy for some reason or another. Since not everyone is on all the time, I feel that theres room for one more to be a close friend and be included especially in co-op games where I find most games are always more fun with a friend or group. So it'd be nice to be able to form a full group or have another friend for party games and to be able to talk to.
I exclusively play on PC and mainly use discord every day, so I prefer to voice chat when we game. I've been told i'm quite friendly and easy to talk to as are my friends so don't worry if you feel a bit shy at first. I hope to find someone to be able to have a laugh with or get down to business in a game, but also be able to talk or text outside of playing too, where the friendship truly is long-term because I don't see the point in short lived or one off play session buddies anywho.
I am looking for a friend who would like to be my close friend first and foremost but also want to be adopted into my handful of close friends to join on a bunch of different games ranging from pvp, co-ops, pve, survivals and more since we like to play a whole variety of games all the time. So it would be nice if you're flexible, and open and willing to try new games. I like to text/talk a lot so it would be nice to find someone who feels the same way, since I believe a friendship should go both ways in terms of effort. Please be around a similar age and also timezone as it can be quite difficult to make friends with people otherwise sometimes. Also I beg that you don't bother messaging if you have a ton of friends or a friend group you game and talk to often already, as the friendship doesn't work out otherwise and trust me i've tried :(. I feel as if it doesn't need to be stated but please be LGBTQ friendly as well.
Some of the games i'm currently playing and or would be open to play again include (from top being the games im playing the most at the moment or want to play, to the bottom being the least:
Warhammer 40k: Darktide
Fortnite (zero builds)
Overwatch 2
Deep rock galactic
Valorant
Outlast trials
Enshrouded
V Rising
Valheim
Soulmask
Baldurs gate 3
Helldivers 2
World of Warcraft
Sea of thieves
Forewarned
Abiotic factor
Killing floor 2
Jackbox party packs (2-10)
Gartic phone
And a whole lot more!!!
Bonus friend points if you're also from the UK, and also are interested in some of the games mentioned. Please feel free to send me a DM if you're interested, additional bonus points if you send me a long message about yourself and tell me about your favourite video game creature or something (one of my favourites is the kobolds from WoW, since they're super ratty), I really do appreciate longer more detailed messages as first impressions are important! Thank you for reading, hope to hear from you soon! :)

2024.06.01 05:53 Dr_Kaatz [26] Dont have many friends, looking for new ones
Hey! So I'm a pretty reserved person and enjoy my own company a lot of the time, in a happy relationship but realised that outside of my partner I don't have anyone to talk to day to day
Looking for friends that are pretty active online, I don't need to be talking to you every second but I have a few people who I mostly talk to every couple of days / weeks which, while is fine, I am looking for a more active friendship
With that out of the way, I'm 26 and non-binary, I'm a gamer, mostly play survival games but I play pretty much anything if it interests me, in order of my most recently played; world of warcraft, dead by daylight, slay the spire, fallout 4, abiotic factor
I am pretty open about most things, I am very open about my mental illness and neurodivergence and I'm not someone who thinks something is TMI (I will absolutely respect someone's conversation boundaries though, just that my boundaries are pretty relaxed)
Mostly talk to people on discord but also use snapchat if you feel comfortable enough with me
But yeah, I'm an open book so if you have any questions lemme know! c:

2024.05.31 22:54 SimpleIndication3765 PC/25 Looking to cultivate like-minded gamers
Looking for gamer pals, I'm an accepting guy, anyone is welcome to reach out. I mostly game after 5pm EST. Generally I find friends via official discord group finders. But I am really looking for people I can play more consistently with. Y'know, people you see playing when you logon and you're like "Awesome, tonight is going to be a good time"
I drift between a lot of games and genres, but often by chance find myself playing mostly shooters. That said, open to everything - anything can be fun with friends. Multiplayer games I'm currently playing a lot are Counterstrike 2, Helldivers 2, and Lethal Company.
I would also get back into Deep Rock Galactic, The Master Chief Collection, GTFO, Hunt Showdown, Warhammer III, Valheim, Darktide, Vermintide, Elite Dangerous, Ready or Not, Titanfall 2, Rainbow Six Siege, and Star Citizen.
Haven't tried but games on my radar are Project Zomboid, Abiotic Factor, Monster Hunter World, Fallout 76... But again, open to other suggestions!
Please feel free to message me and we can exchange discord info!

2024.05.31 21:11 TheHeavyIzDead Better call Saul mod
One of my favorite mods for project zomboid was hearing the better call Saul commercial play on in game TVs. My immersion was sent to new highs and I’ve never felt more relaxed, I think Abiotic Factor could greatly benefit from such a feature.

2024.05.31 14:14 PanzerwagenZ3 Good Online Coop game for at least 3 people?
Im looking for a game to play with two buddies of mine, In the past we've enjoyed stuff like modded minecraft, factorio, Ark, the forest, Warframe and a few others.
Theres a slight problem in the sense that two of us love grindy games while the third looses interest in them a bit faster. As long as the grind isnt immense it shouldnt be an issue.
A few new releases ive been looking at were V Rising or Abiotic factor, so any experience with those games would also be appreciated

2024.05.31 00:02 dankwookiee OCT Thru Hike Report May 2024
Finished my thru hike a few days ago. Left Warrenton May 1st and got to Crissey Field May 27th.
Here's some notes. It's mostly cautions, with a few nice notes, so don't be scared off - the trip was absolutely phenomenal. Minus the first weekend I had killer weather. The vistas are unparalleled and the pelicans were so numerous. Saw seals frequently, a handful of whales on the north coast, saw some snowy plovers south of Bandon, bald eagles and osprey plentiful. So much beauty. So much hiking and camping. So many sunsets and forest morning walks.
May 1: Warrenton to Fort Stevens HB Camp
Took the bus from PDX to Warrenton, $20 and got dropped off by the Fred Meyers in Warrenton about 11:40. Hiked up through Hammond and the historic Fort Stevens area to the Jetty Road, up the Jetty Road to the Jetty, down the beach, then inland to the HB camp. If you leave from Warrenton, the Warrenton waterfront trail is a nice way to get close to the Columbia and avoid a good chunk of the road to Fort Stevens.
May 2: Fort Stevens HB to Tillamook Head
Long, smooth beach section. They were closing the beach by Camp Rilea later in the morning for firing drills, I made it through and reached the end just as the soldier in the truck was driving up the beach. Water up at Seltzer Park if you plan on staying at the Ecola shelters. There is a stream down the hill from the shelters but I didn't need to use it. Trails over Clarks Mtn/Tillamook Head were largely good and mud-free, I got there before the rainstorm at the beginning of the month. Watch out for side trails off the main trail that can be misleading.
May 3: Tillamook Head to Nehalem Bay.
I do not recommend doing this in one day. Watch the tides and go around the points (Silver, Humbug, Hug) at a minus tide if you can. There's an area just above the bridge across Arch Cape Creek that makes a good bivouac. I reached that around 1pm and decided to keep going - big mistake especially with the inclement weather starting to hit. The wind and rain absolutely sucked. I got to Nehalem Bay after dark, nearly chilled through. Fortunately Nehalem Bay has a great HB area and plenty of hot water in the showers. Oswald West was fine, north side of the trail going into Cape Falcon is very brushy. I skipped Neahkahnie mountain because of the weather and the time.
May 4: Nehalem Bay to Barview Jetty
NOTE: Old Mill RV Resort in Garibaldi is no longer taking tent campers, at all. They're renovating the tent area into more RV parking.
Jetty Fishery ferry is running as usual, it's a great place. This is the only water crossing I took. The seals on the side of the bay were less enthusiastic about the boat coming across than I was. Non eventful approach to Barview Jetty minus wind and rain. Barview Jetty HB area is nice and I'd love to visit it again under better weather.
May 5: Barview Jetty to Cape Lookout:
NOTE: Boat shuttles will be tricky this year. There is construction on the Tillamook Bay South Jetty that has Bayocean Dike Road closed through a good portion of the north end. The folks at the marina said they'd run boats after memorial day, tide dependent, but that folks taking the boat shuttle might have to prepare for a long wade (quarter mile) due to the how shallow the area available for drop off is.
I took the tracks from Garibaldi into Tillamook, then 131 out to Cape Lookout. It was nice skipping the road, railroad ballast is pretty horrible for walking on and watch out for the rail trestles if it's wet. The tracks were obviously disused due to several small slides that covered them. Be aware you may encounter homeless camping.
May 6: Cape Lookout to Sandbeach
NOTE: Cape Lookout north trail is closed due to washouts and trees on bridges. Have to hike the highway to the top and then you can take the south trail to the beach. Saw a bear cub in the clearcut across from the park entrance - park rangers said he roams alone most of the time and sometimes comes into the park to eat salal. They're monitoring it. South trail was good. Don’t expect to cross Sand Lake Estuary without a pretty low tide.
May 7: Sandbeach to Webb County CG.
Crossed the estuary bright and early with a <1ft tide. Nice morning hike down the beach to Cape Kiwanda and into Pacific City. Made my first grocery visit here for a refill on some blister care and food items. Chester's is good but is a mile away from Webb. I'd given myself some good blisters with the wet feet, railroad ballast walking, and overly long days where I was trying to speed hike road sections. After this point my feet toughened up pretty fast though. Grab a beer at Pelican and watch the sunset if you can and are inclined. Shoutout to the lovely Canadian retirees in their RV who invited me over for some hot cocoa the next morning.
May 8: Webb County to Neskowin Creek RV Resort:
Great day. The road section from Pacific City to 101 isn't bad. The rhododendrons were spectacular. There's a really cute farm stand where HWY 130 forks east from 101. Support them. Winema Road to Winema beach was great. The road walk from Neskowin beach access to Neskowin Creek RV resort was great.
NOTE: If you want to stay at Neskowin Creek RV resort, CALL AHEAD and make a reservation. You can do same day but they'll need a nonrefundable deposit if you're not a member of their parent organization. But it's nice, the showers and laundry were good, the meadow camping was a bit dewy in the morning but comfortable sleeping. It's back from the highway and pretty quiet.
May 9: Neskowin to Devils Lake (Gleneden Beach).
Standout day. Hit the north Rainforest Trail over Cascade Head by 9am and had a cool, beautiful, shady forest climb. South side was much warmer and the salmonberries overgrowing the lower portions of the trail were annoying. Heard rumors about a washout but I think I either missed it or it's been fixed enough. The highway section through Neotsu from the 101-18 junction into Lincoln City suuuucks. Take it slow, walk towards oncoming, and be prepared to step into the ditch frequently.
NOTE: Beverly Beach is closed through end of June. From Devils Lake to the next campground where you can tent camp, South Beach SP, is 30miles. I had time afternoon of May 9, so I hopped the bus to Gleneden Beach and hiked north back to Devils Lake. That knocked out 8 miles, so the next day I got the bus early to Gleneden Beach and hiked south to South Beach. Recommend using the bus to break this section up however best suits you. It's cheap ($2) per ride.
May 10: Gleneden Beach to South Beach
Bus to Gleneden Beach. A few road sections, the powerline trails between Fogarty Creek and Whale Cove are very helpful.
Taking the stairs from Devils Punchbowl to Beverly and Moolack beaches is the way to go. I hit Schooner Point at mid-tide - feet got wet but I was able to get around. Be cautious and shoot for low tides. No highway walking needed through Newport. The mini market right before Lighthouse Drive is really nice. Walking across the Yaquina Bay bridge was a bucket list item for me- so cool. Saw an osprey nest on one of the towers below the bridge. Grab a Dead Guy from Rogue before hiking to South Beach if you're inclined.
May 11: South Beach to Beachside:
Nice beach walk minus short sections through Seal Rock and Waldport. And a short highway section in Seal Rock. There was a locked gate at the end of the beach climbout into Seal Rock - it should have been reopened but not sure. Fish and Chips at Luna Sea are great. Low afternoon tide meant I could hit the beach right away as soon as it started in Waldport. Beachside SP had some lowlying flooded areas and wasn't my favorite HB site but the HB area was dry and sheltered. Close to highway.
May 12: Beachside to Perpetua:
Beautiful walk down into Yachats. Trail walk up to Cape Perpetua after crossing the Yachats River. Caffeinate well at Green Salmon before going up Perpetua - you'll need the boost. Great day. Perpetua CG has a HB site - 29A - find the camp host. I think it was $10. It's a nice site with creek access.
May 13: Perpetua to Carl Washburne
The forest trail to Cummins Creek is great. The road walking between Cummins Creek and Rock Creek CG can do unspeakable things to itself. There are sections where there is neither road shoulder nor a flat surface outside the guardrail. I made it through with much anxiety, cursing, and some slipping on the surface outside the guardrail. The beach section from Rock Creek to Carl Washburne was nice, Rock Creek and Big Creek are kind of rocky and swift but not too deep. Washburne is a nice HB CG, very handy to showers, no power station so charge in bathrooms. There's a resident coyote at Carl Washburne, so just be cautious.
May 14: Carl Washburne to Honeyman
Hobbit trail to Heceta is phenomenal, such a view point if weather is clear. Heceta Tunnel. Walked it. Probably shouldn't have. Roads past it are OK shoulder wise. Baker Beach into Florence very windy. Construction on Rhododendron Drive in Florence - check closures and detours. Highway from Florence to Honeyman wasn't bad. Honeyman HB sites are good, didn't like the sharp pea gravel they surfaced with but it was fine. Find a big rock to drive stakes, or meet a cyclist with a hammer.
May 15: Honeyman to Threemile Lake
Mostly uneventful, hiked under grey skies, not many OHV but then again it was a Wednesday. Beautiful crushed shell beaches. Tahkenitch creek crossing at midtide was sketchy, recommend timing for low tide. Should probably have stopped at Carter Lake or Waxmyrtle. Dune walking is hard. Threemile lake has not many sites by the lake but is pretty.
May 16: Threemile Lake to Umpqua LH
Sparrow Park Road is alright. Watch out for the puddles - you'd think the gravel surface would be hard but no, it's very soft and you'll sink over your ankles. Took a halfmile detour to Sugar Shack in Reedsport before hitting the laundromat (nice laundromat) and safeway. Highway stretch into Winchester Bay isn't bad.
May 17: Rest Day at Umpqua LH.
Destroyed a pizza at Bedrocks and went on a tour of the lighthouse. Watched the pelicans diving into the bay at sunset.
May 18: Umpqua to Horsfall Beach.
Lots of OHV in this area unsurprisingly but the beach walk was nice and could mostly ignore the OHV. I was thinking of camping at Bluebill but when I got to the beach exit I decided to head south a short ways and camp just off the beach. Worth it. Especially when I went past Bluebill next day and found out it was closed.
May 19: Horsfall to Sunset Bay.
As soon as I left the beach the bugs were after me. The road past the campgrounds was flooded over about 6" deep for several hundred feet in one section. Bluebill CG was closed (as mentioned) and I could see the entire area was basically still a swamp and hadn't dried out yet for the year. Hiking road through North Bend/Coos Bay was uneventful. Mom's Kitchen was a great breakfast, even if the folks there seemed a little unsure about "person with backpack." It's tiny and tight quarters so if they had been full, I wouldn't have tried to squeeze myself in. Don't miss the Walmart or Big 5 if you need something. Most of the road walk to Charleston is on a nice bike path off the main road.
Sunset Bay is one of the nicest campgrounds, and the beach/bay can't be beat for beauty.
May 20: Sunset Bay to Bullards.
I took the Cape Arago route, I think I missed the easy crossover from the pack trail to the logging road because I had to bushwhack. I don't recommend bushwhacking. Find the easy crossover that I missed. The PCT hikers that were visiting the OCT said they found the easy crossover. Passed a Caterpillar trimming brush on the logging road, operator didn't seem happy to see me, the PCT hikers reported that he lectured them about being there. I couldn't find clear information from the Weyerhauser Recreation site afterwards. Seven Devils Road is steep and gravelly and I grumbled a lot through it.
May 21: Bullards to Floras Lake.
The bridge into Bandon didn't feel too sketchy. Try to get to the beach at low tide. I'd have loved to have primitive camped in the New River area, but didn't have water. I checked out the river but it looked brown and sluggish, with goose droppings all over the bank and cow pasture upstream, so I had zero interest in filtering. Beach south of New River access is steep and soft, wear gaiters if you have them. I didn't. New River crossing at a 2.5' low tide were just above knee deep but I'm 6'2" so factor accordingly. There's a very shallow crossing just past Bandon and a main crossing a couple miles north of Floras Lake. Floras Lake CG has a small laundry facility and pay showers.
May 22: Floras Lake to Cape Blanco.
Blacklock Point is amazing, take the scenic detours. The Sixes River … you can cross it at a 3' low tide but it won't be fun. I think I crossed it around a 4' tide. It was up to my armpits (again, 6'2"). This was after waiting an hour and a half, I arrived when it was uncrossable. I'd shoot for a tide of 1' or less but I made it with my pack dry by holding it above my shoulders. The seals on the other side laughed at my initial attempts to cross and then left after I kept trying. Cape Blanco has another really nice HB camp.
May 23: Cape Blanco to Humbug Mountain.
Elk River was knee deep a bit after low tide, but it was a minus tide. Could be waist deep or more at a 1-2ft tide. Easy beach walk into Port Orford, a short highway section between Port Orford and the old 101 section. Lots of pelican flights, and saw Bonaparte Gulls on the beach by Port Orford which was cool. Along the old 101 section, I started seeing foxgloves in addition to the wild irises and lupines I'd been going by. There were some good viewpoints off this trail as well. Humbug Mtn HB is kinda rocky and hard to drive stakes but is also tucked away and private feeling. The highway noise was real - bring earplugs.
May 24: Humbug Mtn to dunes camp south of Gold Beach.
Highway section not too bad, but watch out for the areas where the highway has slid and there's been some recent construction. Go to Arizona Beach, shoot for low tide so you can exit out past Sisters Rocks. Otherwise you will not be able to make it all the way down Arizona Beach. Ophir to Nesika a nice beach walk. Nesika past Geisel monument and over another old 101 section was pretty. Otter point to Gold Beach was uneventful. There are some good spots between BA 179 and Cape Sebastian to dunes camp.
May 25: Dunes s of Gold Beach to Boardman Corridor.
Cape Sebastian was great, the viewpoints north are spectacular and the shore pines south are so pretty. Watch for poison oak. Meyers Beach North was OK, I didn't enjoy the south section past Pistol River, very windy with driving sand.
Carry water, be prepared to filter. I filtered from the creek below Lola Lake at the end of Meyers Beach. Plan to flag stop a bus or have someone shuttle you. It's too far and too difficult of a hike to go from Pistol River to Harris Beach in a day.
May 26: Boardman Corridor to Harris Beach.
Only toilets are at Arch Rock wayside. Have a water filter handy.
Most of the trails through the Corridor are pretty good. Exceptions: the exit off the south end of Whaleshead Beach is tough. The first several hundred feet are less like a path and more like a super uneven deer path, if that. Right next to the creek, it's basically just little toeholds chipped into the side of the hill. There is still a washout further up the hill, it's not awful, but had to grab the trees around it to steady myself across that area.
May 27: Harris Beach to Crissey Field:
Uneventful. Low tide made it easy to go from McVay Rock to California on the beach. The Winchuck River was an easy crossing at low tide. It was pretty exciting to hit the border and then check into the visitor center!
Overall: a grand time. I'd love to do it again over 40 days or so, with some intentional rests built in and breaking up the longer days. Example: lodgings in seaside (International Hostel?) would have broken up the Fort Stevens to Tillamook/Ecola day nicely, splitting Ecola to Nehalem is just the smart choice, and Garibaldi to Cape Lookout should be 2 days as well.
Hope this helps! Feel free to ask questions about specific sections or the hike in general.

Here's some notes. It's mostly cautions, with a few nice notes, so don't be scared off - the trip was absolutely phenomenal. Minus the first weekend I had killer weather. The vistas are unparalleled and the pelicans were so numerous. Saw seals frequently, a handful of whales on the north coast, saw some snowy plovers south of Bandon, bald eagles and osprey plentiful. So much beauty. So much hiking and camping. So many sunsets and forest morning walks.
May 1: Warrenton to Fort Stevens HB Camp
Took the bus from PDX to Warrenton, $20 and got dropped off by the Fred Meyers in Warrenton about 11:40. Hiked up through Hammond and the historic Fort Stevens area to the Jetty Road, up the Jetty Road to the Jetty, down the beach, then inland to the HB camp. If you leave from Warrenton, the Warrenton waterfront trail is a nice way to get close to the Columbia and avoid a good chunk of the road to Fort Stevens.
May 2: Fort Stevens HB to Tillamook Head
Long, smooth beach section. They were closing the beach by Camp Rilea later in the morning for firing drills, I made it through and reached the end just as the soldier in the truck was driving up the beach. Water up at Seltzer Park if you plan on staying at the Ecola shelters. There is a stream down the hill from the shelters but I didn't need to use it. Trails over Clarks Mtn/Tillamook Head were largely good and mud-free, I got there before the rainstorm at the beginning of the month. Watch out for side trails off the main trail that can be misleading.
May 3: Tillamook Head to Nehalem Bay.
I do not recommend doing this in one day. Watch the tides and go around the points (Silver, Humbug, Hug) at a minus tide if you can. There's an area just above the bridge across Arch Cape Creek that makes a good bivouac. I reached that around 1pm and decided to keep going - big mistake especially with the inclement weather starting to hit. The wind and rain absolutely sucked. I got to Nehalem Bay after dark, nearly chilled through. Fortunately Nehalem Bay has a great HB area and plenty of hot water in the showers. Oswald West was fine, north side of the trail going into Cape Falcon is very brushy. I skipped Neahkahnie mountain because of the weather and the time.
May 4: Nehalem Bay to Barview Jetty
NOTE: Old Mill RV Resort in Garibaldi is no longer taking tent campers, at all. They're renovating the tent area into more RV parking.
Jetty Fishery ferry is running as usual, it's a great place. This is the only water crossing I took. The seals on the side of the bay were less enthusiastic about the boat coming across than I was. Non eventful approach to Barview Jetty minus wind and rain. Barview Jetty HB area is nice and I'd love to visit it again under better weather.
May 5: Barview Jetty to Cape Lookout:
NOTE: Boat shuttles will be tricky this year. There is construction on the Tillamook Bay South Jetty that has Bayocean Dike Road closed through a good portion of the north end. The folks at the marina said they'd run boats after memorial day, tide dependent, but that folks taking the boat shuttle might have to prepare for a long wade (quarter mile) due to the how shallow the area available for drop off is.
I took the tracks from Garibaldi into Tillamook, then 131 out to Cape Lookout. It was nice skipping the road, railroad ballast is pretty horrible for walking on and watch out for the rail trestles if it's wet. The tracks were obviously disused due to several small slides that covered them. Be aware you may encounter homeless camping.
May 6: Cape Lookout to Sandbeach
NOTE: Cape Lookout north trail is closed due to washouts and trees on bridges. Have to hike the highway to the top and then you can take the south trail to the beach. Saw a bear cub in the clearcut across from the park entrance - park rangers said he roams alone most of the time and sometimes comes into the park to eat salal. They're monitoring it. South trail was good. Don’t expect to cross Sand Lake Estuary without a pretty low tide.
May 7: Sandbeach to Webb County CG.
Crossed the estuary bright and early with a <1ft tide. Nice morning hike down the beach to Cape Kiwanda and into Pacific City. Made my first grocery visit here for a refill on some blister care and food items. Chester's is good but is a mile away from Webb. I'd given myself some good blisters with the wet feet, railroad ballast walking, and overly long days where I was trying to speed hike road sections. After this point my feet toughened up pretty fast though. Grab a beer at Pelican and watch the sunset if you can and are inclined. Shoutout to the lovely Canadian retirees in their RV who invited me over for some hot cocoa the next morning.
May 8: Webb County to Neskowin Creek RV Resort:
Great day. The road section from Pacific City to 101 isn't bad. The rhododendrons were spectacular. There's a really cute farm stand where HWY 130 forks east from 101. Support them. Winema Road to Winema beach was great. The road walk from Neskowin beach access to Neskowin Creek RV resort was great.
NOTE: If you want to stay at Neskowin Creek RV resort, CALL AHEAD and make a reservation. You can do same day but they'll need a nonrefundable deposit if you're not a member of their parent organization. But it's nice, the showers and laundry were good, the meadow camping was a bit dewy in the morning but comfortable sleeping. It's back from the highway and pretty quiet.
May 9: Neskowin to Devils Lake (Gleneden Beach).
Standout day. Hit the north Rainforest Trail over Cascade Head by 9am and had a cool, beautiful, shady forest climb. South side was much warmer and the salmonberries overgrowing the lower portions of the trail were annoying. Heard rumors about a washout but I think I either missed it or it's been fixed enough. The highway section through Neotsu from the 101-18 junction into Lincoln City suuuucks. Take it slow, walk towards oncoming, and be prepared to step into the ditch frequently.
NOTE: Beverly Beach is closed through end of June. From Devils Lake to the next campground where you can tent camp, South Beach SP, is 30miles. I had time afternoon of May 9, so I hopped the bus to Gleneden Beach and hiked north back to Devils Lake. That knocked out 8 miles, so the next day I got the bus early to Gleneden Beach and hiked south to South Beach. Recommend using the bus to break this section up however best suits you. It's cheap ($2) per ride.
May 10: Gleneden Beach to South Beach
Bus to Gleneden Beach. A few road sections, the powerline trails between Fogarty Creek and Whale Cove are very helpful.
Taking the stairs from Devils Punchbowl to Beverly and Moolack beaches is the way to go. I hit Schooner Point at mid-tide - feet got wet but I was able to get around. Be cautious and shoot for low tides. No highway walking needed through Newport. The mini market right before Lighthouse Drive is really nice. Walking across the Yaquina Bay bridge was a bucket list item for me- so cool. Saw an osprey nest on one of the towers below the bridge. Grab a Dead Guy from Rogue before hiking to South Beach if you're inclined.
May 11: South Beach to Beachside:
Nice beach walk minus short sections through Seal Rock and Waldport. And a short highway section in Seal Rock. There was a locked gate at the end of the beach climbout into Seal Rock - it should have been reopened but not sure. Fish and Chips at Luna Sea are great. Low afternoon tide meant I could hit the beach right away as soon as it started in Waldport. Beachside SP had some lowlying flooded areas and wasn't my favorite HB site but the HB area was dry and sheltered. Close to highway.
May 12: Beachside to Perpetua:
Beautiful walk down into Yachats. Trail walk up to Cape Perpetua after crossing the Yachats River. Caffeinate well at Green Salmon before going up Perpetua - you'll need the boost. Great day. Perpetua CG has a HB site - 29A - find the camp host. I think it was $10. It's a nice site with creek access.
May 13: Perpetua to Carl Washburne
The forest trail to Cummins Creek is great. The road walking between Cummins Creek and Rock Creek CG can do unspeakable things to itself. There are sections where there is neither road shoulder nor a flat surface outside the guardrail. I made it through with much anxiety, cursing, and some slipping on the surface outside the guardrail. The beach section from Rock Creek to Carl Washburne was nice, Rock Creek and Big Creek are kind of rocky and swift but not too deep. Washburne is a nice HB CG, very handy to showers, no power station so charge in bathrooms. There's a resident coyote at Carl Washburne, so just be cautious.
