Solar charger for the phone, maybe?
Also, a bucket. Some guy (on reddit, maybe) swore by it. Seat, container, table, musical instrument, conversation starter.

You can walk along the coast from San Diego to LA. It's about 120 miles with about 3,000 feet of elevation changes according to the map I found for those who've done the trip by bicycle.
Double edged sword - cops don't like transients in general and they especially don't like armed transients.

Yeah, you probably want to stick near the coasts. SD to LA, especially, but I'm trying to figure out how you're gonna get though Camp Pendleton...
Of course they did. They made sure to let you know they are overeducated.
I wasn't sure about that either, so I looked it up. There's a route that cyclists use that does not involve getting on the 5.

edit - actually it looks like Camp Pendleton may not be open to pedestrians, only cyclists. You should find out. If you have to bypass Camp Pendleton your walk is going to at least double in length and time.
Yeah.. maybe just spray. But should still have something...

That's pretty much the plan for most of the way
Lol to some extent. I've thought about shit hitting the fan and what I would do. Otherwise it's figure it out as I go. I've already learned a lot in a few days like: don't sleep on the beach.
There's a path you can take through called "Artillery Range Service Road."

Oceanside may have its rougher sections, but it's got some damn good surf.
You got swept out to sea didn't you. Some beaches, like in OC, close at certain time. Which I've always thought was bullshit, how you gonna close a beach.

Sitting at a Starbucks on La Jolla blvd in SD. Ritzy. I'm taking my time.
If that's the case ill likely just hitchhike through it. If there is a road for cyclists I have a feeling one guy walking can slip through.

Gravity is a myth, the Earth SUCKS!
It's good that you have a sleeping pad at least, sleeping outdoors without one is fucking horrible. Make sure you always drink a lot of water, you never know when you're going to have to go without for a while. Although not overly palatable, pasta is edible uncooked and won't spoil. Lastly, don't stash anything in a cache you're not willing to lose.
Walk PCH HWY1 from San Diego up through San Clemente/Laguna sound Orange County into Newport Huntington North Orange County then up through Santa Monica, then start running until you get to Santa Barbara .. then well then catch a bus to San Fran b/c there isn't shit to do from Santa Barbara to San Fran lol
If you come through Irvine during business hours let me know.

It's a military base. I don't recommend slipping through. Unless you want a free trip to Cuba.
Post up when you get to Malibu. I'll resupply you.
:lol :lol
I live in Arcata, the CA capital of transients and hippies, and this doesn't seem to be that case...but still, top comment.

I've been looking into it, and for that nine mile stretch its illegal to walk but there is a bike trail. Hitching that nine miles is prob my safest bet, although I've found stories of ppl walking through in the middle if the night. Doesn't seem worth the risk
and yes I realize I'm a bad cliche and deserve to be made fun of.

The drive to Yosemite from the Bay Area or from the Bay Area to LA is a lot of farm land -> farm land -> dry hills -> farm land -> complete bumfucknowhere -> farm land. Rinse repeat.
what about SB? =/

Ya but when we break away from the union we can feed ourselves!!!!!
The LA <-> SF drive is awesome on PCH if you're not in a hurry. It's absolutely gorgeous. But it's slow.
It would be a rough walk because of all the climbs and descents, not to mention dangerous.
LA <-> SF on the 101 is much nicer than the 5. Maybe 20 - 40 minutes longer but more interesting scenery. Less dust and bugs, too.
