Well, hello guys! My name is Tyler. I'm a 24 year old veteran of the Army. I'm planning to thru-hike the trail starting Oct. 1 as a chance to free myself from the stresses of daily life and the PTSD I live with every day. It's been a long time I have done anything for myself, or made/completed a major goal. The intent behind this trip is to find myself again, parts that were lost while over seas. Hopefully even find a better person. I've read a few good books on this, just like many people and now I'm here looking for advice. All feedback is welcome. Great to meet you all!
