🎙️ Peak Lists, Family Trips & 1,000+ Summits with Brett of @thehuntindaddy ⛰️

In this episode of Hikes & Mics, we’re joined by Brett Marciasini—peak bagger, hunter-turned-hiker, and dad passing his love for the outdoors on to the next generation. From tackling Nevada’s most remote ranges to standing nearly 19,000 feet high in Ecuador, Brett shares what it’s like chasing lists, solitude, and adventure across the West.

We talk about completing the 63 Oguls, 91 Great Basin Peaks (and counting), and every Nevada county high point, as well as the challenges of sketchy roads to trailheads and even a broken ankle on the way to his 1,000th summit. Brett also shares how hiking with his kids has reshaped the way he sees the trail—and why the journey matters as much as the peak.

🎧 Tune in for an inspiring conversation about grit, family, and finding beauty in the places few others go.
