Photo taken by contributor Aaron Fisk, a 32-year-old Combat Infantryman from Anchorage, Alaska. He has been managing PTSD for 10 years using photography and cinematography. Getting out into the wilderness also helps him put life into perspective.
About this photo: “My nephew joined me on this hike through Kincaid Park and I took this as he was staring out into the Cook Inlet.
Everything is big up here. Whether you’re climbing a 4000-6000 foot peak or driving hundreds of miles to get to the next town, it is hard not to ponder on life. I just rather do it here, amongst giants.”

Headed to AK for the very first time this coming Aug. Can’t wait. Would love to get thoughts on if you have favorite spots on the Kenai, Aaron! Lovely photo and one of my FB friends writes a lot about PTSD. Keep up your photography!

Your photo is stunning. My 15 year old suffers from PTSD from a car accident where he was hit as a pedestrian. No fun. He just finished reading Into the Wild and I think he longs to go to Alaska. It looks beautiful but I don’t deal well with cold with my many health issues. I would have to come during the season with loads of daylight as light also effects my depression.
