ken4ord Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 .........and hanging on 5.8+. Don't be to rough on yourself, that was a 5.8++. Quote
ken4ord Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 Not that it matters now cause this thread has turned into spray, but this what I got in mind. Another trip to South Africa, hopefully get on some ice. Killimanjaro, probably the Coke Cola route. Mt. Kenya, 10 days on the mountain hopefully several routes. A most likely untouched wall in Rusumo, Tanzania, next week. Southern France for a week sporto shit. And maybe finish up the year with Christmas in Morroco. I thought I didn't have any goals I guess I did. Didn't get on ice in SA, Killi is going on 2006 goal, Mt. Kenya damn right good times were had, Tanzania wouldn't allows us to attempt climbing the wall it was restricted area found some pebble pulling that day to make up for it, good times were had drinking cheap red wine and reaching up for a clip, finishing the year in Uganda instead Morrocco.

TimL Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 Its funny, moving to a different country I have had to develope a bunch of different goals other then climbs around the NW, Canada and Yosemite. I think that I have explored enough new places to figure out some new goals for next year. As well I knocked my onsite level up a couple grades which was the main goal this year. I find that my technical goals revolve around onsite climbing. Quote
ken4ord Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 I agree my goals have changed a bit not much climbing around thiese parts so it is actually been more work oriented goals that I have now. It is definitely not going to help my onsite ability, oh well, hopefully the next country we live in has more climbing so that I can get back into it. My most recent goal is to get a woodie and campus board up in the backyard, so that when I do get around some rock I pull down. Quote
mvs Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 Not a big climbing year for me, mainly about having kids and moving to Germany, but I did get to climb Sleese NE Buttress with Theron and Aidan. That was an awesome trip, a great realization of a longtime goal. Merry Christmas everyone! Quote

catbirdseat Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 This thread revival was about last years goals met and unmet. We need to start a new thread to deal with new goals for 2006, mainly so at the end of 2006 we won't get our unrealized goals from 2006 get confused with our previous ones. Quote
DirtyHarry Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 Put up more 5.11 FA's at secret crag :chestbeat: I know where your secret crag is. Quote
olyclimber Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 My goal is to lose 75 pounds, stop listening to crunk so much, and to go on a date with your girlfriend. Quote
