After reading an 800 page textbook on the history of the world three times over, I have learned two things. First, some things never change. There will always be a lower class- peasants, “mean” people, slaves, and underprivileged. The poor are always among us and their kin are always at a severe disadvantage. Second, things are always changing; every second cells die and reproduce, and we age until we can age no more. Society is among the many aspects of life that persist in ceaseless state of fluctuation. In modern times there are still people of the lower class, but the changing factor is humanities ability to do something about it. With hard work and determination, anyone can rise from the shadows, no matter how steep their disadvantage. Those who have risen from the bottom show the most success. Not only did they accomplish great things, they did it against the odds, and that is what makes history, that is what makes humanity.

Lost Coast Trail, California, Part 1 (more places to go and see)
Length: 50 miles round trip (optional shuttle midway)
I went backpacking with two friends to the Northwestern region of California. We did not trek across the entirety of LCT, but also climbed into the mountains into some uncharted territory. First night we stayed in an abandoned lighthouse, which was interesting. Then we trekked past a destroyed and abandoned house into the mountains, through a roaming pasture and the mountain into a creek.
If you are interested in attempting this area, you absolutely must have a tidal chart or else the sea will carry you away and there is absolutely nowhere to run if you are in the unpassable region. The average mileage on this trail is seven a day; it seems low, but don’t risk getting caught between the high tides. Climbing on sand is very painful and slow, especially if you are lugging a 50 pound backpack.
Here are two nice .psf file for this place. This is probably more appropriate.
To Part 2 of this venture.
