“A link between sleeping in colder temperatures and lower
blood sugar levels, which in turn prevents Type 2 diabetes, has been found in
an American Diabetic Association study.
Scientists discovered that when participants slept naked their body
temperature fell, while their metabolic health improved.” – Claire O’Reilly, http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/features/6615651/The-health-benefits-of-going-nude.html
“Shirley's Fall Creek Nude
Hike Report - Hearing that the weather was going to be in the 80’s I decided to
try and steal another nude camping/hiking weekend. . . Arrived at an
undeveloped campsite in the Fall Creek area outside Eugene/Springfield around 5
pm on Friday evening. . . perfect for nude camping. Woke up early Saturday morning to Oregon fog
that only added to the experience. Once
the sun broke through the fog and I thought the trail would be drier I headed
out for a hike. . . Usually I start a hike as early as possible so that I can
assure myself that it is safe to hike nude.
So little traffic in the area had me feeling comfortable to hike/camp
nude. I started my hike going up stream
from a near by bridge. At the bridge the
trail crosses over the road to go down stream.
I have always wanted to check out some skinny dipping locations on Fall
Creek so hiking the trail gave me a great opportunity to do so. A portion of the hike was on an old road no
longer used close to the river. . . I hiked to a campground that has been
closed for the winter months. . . I used an alternative trail to return to the
bridge and cross the river to hike down stream. . . I found myself in beautiful
moss covered old growth trees and the trail decorated with ferns. This trail is one of the most beautiful I
have ever hiked. Simply
indescribable! The trail is close to the
river and the road on the right. . . A short time later two men were fishing
and if not for their dog would never have noticed me. I had heard the dog and put on my long
t-shirt. They were friendly and I think
one may have been nude previous to hearing me on the trail and the dog barking.
. . I later made a decision to return back before reaching it. The interesting thing about hiking trails is
that returning back on the same trail and seeing it from a different direction
is like hiking a new trail. . . I love Oregon old growth forests and nude
hiking!” - Shirley
“I met the Northcoast
Naturists group . . . we hiked along the creek bank a bit until we arrived at
the painted rock where we undressed . . . It was more of a freehike than a
skinny-dipping outing. We didn’t spend a
lot of time at the falls but it was refreshing to take a dip. . . At the point
where we had originally come down into the gorge we . . . dressed and made our
way back up to the top. Outside of
walking some short trails in a nudist camp, this was my first freehike. I’ve never really had much of an interest in
hiking but my hike through the Chautauqua Gorge was rather enjoyable. I could describe it in the usual terms: the
warmth of the sun, the breeze on my skin and the cool wetness of the water but
they don’t adequately convey what I felt. It’s something that has to be experienced
firsthand to really be understood.” – Rick
“. . . consider the
possibility of encountering a textile hiker while hiking naked on a typical
late fall-early winter or late winter-early spring day! The contrast in attire or lack there-of is a
conversation starter to put it mildly.
Mutual respect and quiet confidence goes a long way in these
situations. As usual, I don't go out
there to create these situations, but I have been there on occasion, and the
experiences have been rich." – Dan
