    In this episode of Hikes & Mics, we’re joined by Charles Graves, a dedicated high-pointer and global adventurer currently based in Japan. From climbing his first peak in Southern California as a kid to summiting Mount Fuji and tackling the Crown of Europe challenge, Charles shares his passion for exploring the world’s highest points—one summit at a time.

    We dive into his experiences hiking across Montana’s rugged backcountry, surviving an intense failed attempt at Granite Peak, and completing the 52 Hike Challenge in some of the toughest conditions. He also shares insights into Japan’s hiking scene, from its well-marked trails to the breathtaking waterfalls of Okinawa. Plus, Charles breaks down his Asian Peak Trilogy goal and his next big adventure in Vietnam!

    If you love international trekking, high-pointing, or just a good adventure story, this episode is for you!
