Rocky Mountain National Park
About Brack: "Hello my name is Brack. I live in Wisconsin, I've had many issues with drugs in the past. All that changed when I went to Northwest Passage. I was far away from home so it was a dramatic change for me. I was not by any friends, family, or anything that can change the way how I feel or think. That was something I am thankful for because it opened my eyes to the sorrow I was stuck in. From this experience I gained many hobbies, camping, hiking, exercising, but photography is my favorite. Photography is hope. Photography is life. Without this program I wouldn't know where I’d be."
