Some have suggested that my previous goals were, let's just say, stretch goals.

My #1 is to ski more with friends, some of whom I have not met yet. I did about 30 days last year and I like to expand that to 35. Not easy in a 3 month season while avoiding weekend crowds. #1A is to stay healthy and be better conditioned. I'm returning to the Epic Gathering at Tahoe, really considering joining Gary on his late January Holimount experience. Would love to revist Stowe for more than one day.

#2 is to clean up my carving. My home mountain has a pitchy headwall, normally "hard pack" (read between the lines on that one ie icey). I skid out too much, want to leave tracks. Technically, I'm convinced I spend too much time in the backseat. Get some video is a priority.

#3 is to spend more time in bigger mountains and in less groomed terrain. Learn to let go and just ski it. S/E Pa. does not have this stuff, so, gotta hit the road.

#4 is to continue to just look around when riding chairs and be thankful for being able to live a life where I can just suck all the great views, conversations and experiences shared with friends. There is nothing quite like the skiing.
