The list is also available here but these are the aims for 2009 with value added ramblings for my blog readers. You lucky lucky blog readers...
1. Buy the van and get it sorted.
2. The Holy Trinity - Pebble Arete, Murky Rib & Anniversary Arete - two problems that I know I can do and one that I think I can.
3. More trad all over the country - 2008 was a really good year for trad from my perspective and hopefully 2009 will provide the same.
4. Try and be consistent when out climbing - it really frustrates me how inconsistent I can be at times.
5. Organise my life better so I can work in some form of training\fitness thing.
6. Sport climbing trips - a rediscovered love after 3 years away - definitely a lot more bolted action (non Peak) required for this year.
7. Go to Font!! This now warrants two exclamation marks!
8. The Holy Trinity of Grades - consistently climbing HVS, Font 6b and F6b (onsight) would be considered a big tick.
9. Gorilla\Extended Warfare.
10. Avalanche Wall (Curbar) without falling off or slumping onto gear.
I actually did quite well last year and of the aims I have set myself this year 1, 2, 3, 6, 7 and 10 are certainly attainable. Of the rest I think the key is to get 5 sorted - get that in place and the rest all become possible.
