Mark Hubner—When Passions and Career Collide!

Welcome to episode 43 of Explore Magazine’s “Live the Adventure” Podcast.

When you pursue your chosen career, do you find it aligns to your lifestyle and to your interests—and to what really makes you tick?

Well it’s what I try to do.

And my guest today does it very well.

We’re talking to Mark Hubner, senior vice President of Baffin.

You know Baffin as makers of those iconic winter boots that I’m sure you’ve used over the years, or at least have seen in stores and on other people’s feet as they trudge through the snow.

Well, Baffin’s expanding out into the world and making all types of new stuff, but we’ll get to that later.

The exciting stuff is what Mark does, not only in his free time—but how he weaves exceptional expeditions into real world testing of Baffin footwear to create something that is uniquely functional, uniquely Canadian, and frankly, just really, really cool.

From Treks to the geographic North Pole, to end-to-end hikes of the Bruce Trail, on to Iceland and South Africa…. Mark has seemingly done it all. And he’s even met a few interesting celebrities along the way, which we’ll talk about.

Alright, are you ready to hear more about Mark’s exciting adventures? Let’s go!
