"Libecki has been on more than 85 major expeditions around the world/over 100 countries and has been called today's Ernest Shackleton and the world's foremost exploratory climber by National Geographic."
A night of inspiration and joyineering, as well as an evening of grand climbing, exploratory and humanitarian expeditions around the world:
Libecki will take us on adventures around the world to some of the most remote, exotic locations on some of the most demanding climbing and exploratory expeditions. Then with his daughter and family to Peru, Nepal, and Africa for humanitarian adventures. Come embrace the magic, power, and beauty of colorful culture, exotic flora and fauna, mystery, immaculate mayhem, suffering arctic, insane jungle, climbing, skiing, and adventure in a way you have never seen before.
There will also be an opportunity drawing of gear and clothing.
National Geographic Explorer/National Geographic Adventurer of the Year, Mike Libecki, can define his life in two ways: An obsession with exploring and climbing the world's most remote and untouched corners of the planet to find huge, world-class first ascents and exploration. As well as being a dedicated father to a daughter that wants to help save the world. He has completed more than 85 major expeditions all over the planet with a goal of 100 expeditions, and has done expeditions from Afghanistan to Antarctica, to Greenland to Guyana, to Siberia to Socotra Island Yemen and everywhere in between.
His pride and joy is being a father to his daughter, Lilliana. Lilliana Libecki, at the age of 15, has already been to 25 countries and all 7 continents, as well as six major expeditions, including two expeditions to Antarctica, ascent of Kilimanjaro in Africa, and a 150-mile trek through the Himalaya of Nepal, 18K foot peaks in Peru, and remote jungle of Arunachal Pradesh, India. All that has been focused on humanitarian and conservation work, she is getting ready for expeditions, Philippines, Svalbard, and Iran. Mike and his daughter Lilliana just founded a nonprofit 501c3 organization that will focus on conservation and humanitarian work around the world.
