lizard_brain Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 My goal is to accumulate more expensive gear. Quote
Ken_p Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 Use all the expensive gear I accumulated working 2 years at MEC in Calgary. Shasta, Adams, multiple Hood for training and entertainment Ski my ass off out of the hospital. Quote
Dannible Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 we could review the past threads of similar nature and see. I think some folks climbed their goals... I can think of a pretty big one that you and me left hanging. My goal is to find a place that doen't rain so much. Quote
Sol Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 top three: 1. Mongo Ridge in Pickets 2. NE Butt of Steinbok 3. Free ascent of W Face Gunsight Your kidding right? I didnt want that as my goal, it set its hooks in me. My Goals: 1. Hoze 2. Combine the pickets traverses. 3. New rt in Gunsight range. 4. Project X Not kidding at all. Your slide show in mt. vernon inspired me. overall the rock didn't look too bad (especially for the pickets). the possibility of a direct line up the tower of remoteness and a repeat of one of the longer routes in the cascades is quite enticing. seems more sane than hozemeen, but i geuss that one set its hooks in you as well.

Reid Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 climb a v5 in the gym (no making fun) Just climb at Stone gardens. I'm sure there will be one you can do. Probably next to the v1 you can't get off the ground on. Summer goals: Spend enough time in the mountains that I get hassled at work for either the amount of time I take off or the condition I show up in on Monday mornings. Quote

syudla Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 (edited) Spend wads of money getting to cool places, suffering shitty weather and not getting up anything. Again. Oh, and world peace...or was that stay out of the hospital. You hear that mom & dad?! Edited January 10, 2008 by syudla Quote
TeleRoss Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 AATWT HOZ complete Pickets traverse many, many days in the Valley Quote
high_on_rock Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 My greatest adventures will probably be vicarious watching TeleRoss post his TRs. God I hate working for a living. Quote
ken4ord Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 Fly far away from home, climb some cool shit. Hell yeah man, I can wait. I'll be at the airport today. Well we didn't get to climb much, but it was an adventure for sure. Hell between ebola outbreaks, gas shortages, puking, shitting, passing out in thigh deep bogs, car surfing, loosing a murse, cattles stampedes and tearing it up until 4am in a sketchy part of town, I can definitely say it was an ADVENTURE. It will be interesting to see what the rest of 2008 has in store. Quote
TimL Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 (edited) this year Spanish - January thru June a couple long routes in Catalonia maybe an alpine ice route in the Pyrenes or Picos de Europa, doubt that will happen due to global warming couple long hard granite alpine routes in Galayos (central range close to Madrid boulder in Albarracin (supposed to be the best bouldering area in Southern Europe and its close to Madrid) onsite a couple routes and redpoint a couple more projects in Cuenca, local sport climbing place States: June thru December Cascades/Index Bugs - hopefully the Howsers Cascades/Index brothers wedding !yeah! Squamish (try to get a couple old monkeys off my back) Sierra - never climbed here so it should be fun Yosemite - El Cap Indian Creek Hueco or Buttermilks/Owens River Gorge Christmas and New Years with family. Hopefully back to Spain in one piece. A lot of climbing, hang out with family and friends who I havn't seen in forever and a lot of fun are the most important goals.
