Hikers planning to walk California's Lost Coast Trail are being urged to postpone their plans after multiple active landslides in the area, as one of the strongest storms in the northwest US in decades arrives. The news comes just six weeks after we reported on Appalachian Trail thru-hikers being forced to suspend their efforts due to severe damage caused by Hurricane Helene.
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) issued a press release on November 15 warning hikers to be vigilant near three active landslide areas north of the Black Sands Beach Trailhead in Shelter Cove, and to consider changing their plans.
