Main Stage Series: Mike Libecki

First Ascent Junkie. Global Explorer. Reality Bender.

Mike Libecki defines himself in two ways: an explorer obsessed with climbing the world’s most remote and untouched mountains, knocking off several first ascents every year, and a dedicated father of an equally adventurous daughter who wants to save the world. National Geographic Adventurer of the Year, Dell Ambassador, and Adidas Athlete, Mike has completed more than 85 major global expeditions with the personal goal of 100. He has summited from Afghanistan to Antarctica, Greenland to Guyana, Siberia to Socotra Island to Yemen, and everywhere in between, paddling with polar bears and climbing the highest peak of Antarctica on his “joyineering” expeditions.
