My love and passion for exploring the outdoors has absolutely fueled the 53 month backwoods camping streak that I currently have.

It’s actually a two part Dream. One is visiting Yellowstone National Park, but to answer your question properly, I would say Yosemite National Park is my dream . I really would love to someday hike Half Dome along with many of the amazing trails the park has to offer with its 1,000 square miles of scenic beauty.
What has been your favorite adventure experience?I would have to say my favorite adventure was probably my most recent solo camping and hiking adventure in the Northern Cascades of Washington State. I was born and raised 15 miles north of Boston along coast of the Atlantic Ocean, but my heart has been in the Mountains from a very young age. The PNW makes my soul vibrate in a similar way that my home mountains do (The White Mountains of New Hampshire). That feeling is that I belong there and can’t help but gravitate back often.
What would you do with $10,000?If I become the Ultimate Explorer, I would donate a portion of the $10,000 to supporting both the National Park Foundation and “My personal playground”… which is the White Mountains National Forest of New Hampshire up here in my home region. I would also look to upgrade my camping and hiking gear to provide more safety and comfort for future adventures into nature.
