I love doing what I do because of the incredible experiences I get to have and the amazing people I get to know along the way. At heart, I\u2019m a down-to-earth Montana boy who grew up working hard on my mom\u2019s ranch, riding horses, kayaking, rafting, and hiking through the Bitterroot Mountains with my pops. My goal is to channel the energy and momentum I\u2019ve created through kayaking into positive inspirational and educational global efforts. I also enjoy backcountry snowboarding, fishing, traveling \u2013 and, of course, drinks and laughs with friends at the end of the day.","url":"https:\/\/community.nrs.com\/duct-tape\/author\/tyler\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/community.nrs.com\/duct-tape\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18232","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/community.nrs.com\/duct-tape\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/community.nrs.com\/duct-tape\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/community.nrs.com\/duct-tape\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/community.nrs.com\/duct-tape\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18232"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/community.nrs.com\/duct-tape\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18232\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21012,"href":"https:\/\/community.nrs.com\/duct-tape\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18232\/revisions\/21012"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/community.nrs.com\/duct-tape\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18240"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/community.nrs.com\/duct-tape\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18232"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/community.nrs.com\/duct-tape\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18232"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/community.nrs.com\/duct-tape\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18232"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
