Two months down, 10 more months to go in 2021.

How did you all do goal wise? I see in the trip and conditions reports that a lot of you are getting out a lot and that's great. Please post.

I had a pretty good February; hopefuly all of you did too. :-D I need to get more rock towers though.

Generic Goals for 2021

Hiking and Climbing Days = 250-Currently at 49 as of 2/28/2021. Not too bad.
Summits Climbed = 150- Currently at 27 as of 2/28/2021. Not too bad.
Rock Towers/Technical Buttes = 10-Currently at 1 as of 2/28/2021. Could do better.
Technical Rock or Ice Routes = 30-Currently at 6 as of 2/28/2021. OK for now.
Technical Canyons = 30-Currently at 5 as of 2/28/2021. Could do better, but not too bad.

I swore to myself that he must live on Mars and has a calendar there twice as long as ours. But I don’t see Olympus Mons on his list so I’m still flummoxed...

Except for the generic goals, often times I don't finish 100% of the goal list. Everything unfinished just gets pushed to the next year. I try to finish as many as possible regardless. This year I may get sent to California in which case I'll have to rewrite the list.

How did you all do goal wise?
My wife gave me COVID in the middle of January, still recovering six weeks in. 2021 sucks (so far). Nice to see all the conditions reports though, several folks have been getting after it this season, congrats to you! I've got 10 or 12 peaks on my Spring todo list, I just need to get that first one under my belt and hopefully all will be well.

If it really does bother anyone, I will stop doing it.

I was hoping that maybe others would post their updates too. I might be fun to see what everyone else is up to.
