What national park do you dream of visiting?

Yosemite National Park! I've always wanted to hike Half Dome, it's one of my dream hikes.

What has been your favorite adventure experience?

Backpacking on the Appalachian Trail for 3 weeks this past spring. I hiked 200 miles from Springer Mountain GA, all the way to Klingmans Dome in the Great Smokey Mountains National Park in TN. It was a beautiful experience and I had the time of my life.

What would you do with $10,000?

Pay off my one remaining college loan, take a fun week long adventure filled vacation, and donate the rest to some local Veteran groups in my area.
