Re: 2021 Goals

Well things are moving along. It was an awfully mild winter, so I haven't even needed snowshoes yet, though I've mostly been messing around in the Foothills. If anyone wants to read about my dumpster diving/obscure peak bagging, here it goes:

-Hike at least 150 miles and 50,000 vertical feet
53.1 miles with 14,100 ft of gain so far.

-100 career ranked peaks (18 left)
10 out of 18 completed so far: 8547, Gold Ridge, 8140, Twin Sisters Peak (Boulder County), 8422, Gross Peak, Bald Mountain (Boulder County), Porphyry Mountain, East Twin Sisters Peak (Larimer), and Twin Sisters Mountain (Larimer). All Boulder County summits except for the last two. I really enjoy exploring various parts of my home county and visiting these (mostly) unfrequented peaks. Helps exercise the navigation and bushwhacking skills too.

-50 career Boulder County ranked peaks (9 left)
8 of 9 completed (see above)!

-20 career IPW ranked peaks (5 left)
No progress yet. I will likely wait until the snow melts, since breaking trail through deep snow sounds mostly unappealing at the moment.

-Finish the Raymond quad in Boulder County (5 left)
4 of 5 completed! The newly completed ones are 8547, 8422, Bald Mountain, and Porphyry. That leaves South Sheep Mountain as the finisher, which I hear is a fun scramble and has spectacular summit views.

-Backpack into Pine Creek; hike at least three 14ers and two 13ers from base camp
Not yet. Waiting for the snow to melt.

-Go on at least one backpacking trip (could be the above trip or a different one)
Not yet.

-Hike at least one peak in a national park other than Rocky
Not yet. I did hike East Twin Sisters Peak and Twin Sisters Mountain in Rocky though. I also plan to hit a Wild Basin peak or two this summer. Right, I'm supposed to be hiking somewhere other than Rocky...

-Decalibron
Not yet.

-Bison Peak in the LCW
Not yet.

-And above all, enjoy nature
Oh yeah!

-Oh, and don't get COVID. That would seem to jeopardize the other goals.
So far so good! Getting my first dose of Moderna tomorrow.

While it may seem like I'm on track to accomplish my modest goals, I am quickly getting distracted by running, so there is plenty of time left for derailing!

Four months down; eight more months to go in 2021. The year is 1/3 over. I hope you all got out as much as you wanted to. Please post. Remember that your goals are your own and if it is only to climb one mountain, that's great. I hope you guys had a good April. I got out 28 days, but unfortunately missed two.

As of 4/30/2021:

Generic Goals for 2021

Hiking and Climbing Days = 250-Currently at 107 as of 4/30/2021. Doing good, goal wise. I should get more than 300.
Summits Climbed = 150- Currently at 57 as of 4/30/2021. Doing good, goal wise.
Rock Towers/Technical Buttes = 10-Currently at 5 as of 4/30/2021. Doing good, goal wise, but didn't get any in April. Hopefully in May I'll do better.
Technical Rock or Ice Routes = 30-Currently at 14 as of 4/30/2021. Doing good, goal wise, but only got two in April. I'm hoping to do better in May.
Technical Canyons = 30-Currently at 14 as of 4/30/2021. Doing good, goal wise.

I'm glad you revived this thread, Scott P, and congrats on your impressive accomplishments!

I had a good day last Thursday, 4/29:

Thank you, Quandary Peak, for the twofer (...1.5er? The April fourteener goal was also lumped in with my desire to summit a fourteener in December, which I accomplished before 2021 started :-D )!

Re: 2021 Goals

Post by Scott P »

Five months down; seven more months to go in 2021. I hope you all got to work on your goals. Please post. Remember that your goals are your own and if it is only to climb one mountain, that's great.

May was a tough month for me goal wise and I fell short on a lot of goals. I didn't do any technical climbs due to a tumor under my arm. I also fell short on peak ascents. I got out 27 days, but most were very short hikes.

I am also giving up on trying to do Glacier Peak and Mount Jefferson this year.

As of 5/31/2021:

Generic Goals for 2021

Hiking and Climbing Days = 250-Currently at 133 as of 5/31/2021. Doing good, goal wise. I should get more than 300.
Summits Climbed = 150- Currently at 69 as of 5/31/2021. Still doing OK, goal wise, but this was due to getting ahead in January through April and I fell short in May.
Rock Towers/Technical Buttes = 10-Currently at 5 as of 5/31/2021. Doing good, goal wise, but this was due to February and March. I didn't get any in April or May.
Technical Rock or Ice Routes = 30-Currently at 14 as of 5/31/2021. Doing good, goal wise, but this was due to getting ahead in January through April. I didn't get any in May
Technical Canyons = 30-Currently at 17 as of 5/31/2021. Doing good, goal wise.

i’m still super nervous to commit to a CT 2021 thru hike, but trying like hell to plan my life around 5 weeks in the woods with my dog
now that we're for real into 2021, i can officially narrow this down. in order of importance:
1. formal commitment to the CT. headed out June 29 for 5-1/2 weeks in the woods with Archer. possible inclusion of Mt. Hope A, TBD.

when i return, a few meager offerings:
2. Longs - with my dog headed into retirement soon, it's time to start working on my C3 peaks- starting with the Loft on Longs.
3. Tour De Massive (roll-over from 2020 goals)
Bonus: Antero, East La Plata-- if i have the time.

Re: 2021 Goals

Post by LarryM »

Despite the fact that the following are modest by the standards of this website, my reach may once again exceed my grasp, given other life obligations*, but here goes, in rough order of likelihood that I'll accomplish them:

(1) My second official 50K race (I've done several 50K training runs, only one race, Dirty 30 in 2018): Devil on the Divide on September 11. I've had this on my radar for three years & it looks like it's finally going to happen.
(2) Add to my modest 14er list - most likely candidates: Sneffels, Uncompahgre, Handies, Sunshine, Redcloud, Mt. of the Holy Cross (Halo ridge).
(3) Further exploration of the mountains in my "backyard" - the Indian Peaks.
(4) My first 50 mile race - two obstacles here - I decided on this one after most of the best ones were filled - and I am slow enough that cutoffs may be a problem - but I do have a plan.
(5) Pacing a friend at the Divide 100.
(6) Weston pass to Mosquito pass - this would be higher on the list, but I need a partner or two, and, while I have several friends interested, my & their summer calendars are filling up quickly so I may not be able to find a date that works.
(7) My first 100 mile run - not an official race but the Hallowed hundred in October - honestly I am not sure that I have it in me, but if I remain injury free I'm going to give it a go.

I have a bunch of other adventures on my bucket list (e.g., Four Pass loop, which could happen this year but probably won't, and Rainier, which will hopefully be next year), and at 61 years of age not that many years to knock them off, but realistically if I can knock the above items off my list (as well as a few of my normal Sunday long runs in the mountains with my Church run friends) I'll be quite happy.

Highlight (in terms of mountain adventures) of the year so far: pacing/supporting a friend at the Cocodona 250.

*Includes obligations I am happy about (trips/time with my girlfriend, time with my daughter & volunteering at one or two ultra races) & obligations I'd rather not have but need to pay the bills (work).

If I may quote myself & expand a little - I'm surprised that this obvious line isn't done more often. While I'm sure that it's been done more often than this, and I may have missed a TR or two, I could find only two relevant TRs - Justin's Mosquito/Ten Mile traverse, which included this line in a much longer effort, and one of Dziezynski's TRs, which did the majority of the route but did not include the northern portion. Maybe it's considered not challenging enough to justify the somewhat difficult car shuttle logistics?

Weston to Mosquito would be a nice ridge run - especially since you could set up a car shuttle pretty easily (if you don't mind parking down Mosquito a little ways), and base your efforts around Leadville. I would bring some bivy gear even if you do want to do it in just a day, as bailing can be problematic, especially with the threat of T-Storms happening with you at or above 13,000' for the entirety of the ridge.
