Marine Army Veteran (MAV) retired after 23 years of military service. Started backpacking on the Appalachian Trail in 2014 and hasn't looked back. Since that first hike, I have completed the Scottish National Trail, GR11 (Spanish Pyrenees), SD Centennial Trail, River 2 River Trail, CDT, half of the AZT, Palmetto Trail, Ouachita Trail, Ozark Highlands Trail, and half of the PCT. Once I complete the PCT I plan on traversing Iceland and then move on to completing the remaining National Scenic Trails.
