Would this be miserable?
Not hiking the whole trail but maybe 100 miles or so. I am also a golfer so planning on ending in Bandon area and playing a round at Bandon Dunes which is one of the best golf courses in the nation.
Looks like average temps aren't that much lower than summer months, but much more chance of rain. Also the shorter days will have an effect on hiking time.
Would mid November be much better?
