Mostly just have fun and not get injured.
I think I will hit 1,000 routes at Pinnacles sometime in the next few weeks. That would be a lifetime total of 1,000 distinct routes done there in good style (redpoint or better unless the route only exists as a toprope, and there are a few of those).
Weather allowing, no injuries allowing and if I'm still alive (and I expect to be!).
I am really, really looking forward to more of the PCT with my daughters too.

Wish for that every year. :) And no buyer's remorse. Go for intriguing lines accepting any outcome that allows a combination of challenge and acceptable level of risk.
Summit of Fitz Roy just got ticked off a few weeks ago, which I guess was one of the goals for 2017. For this trip the real goal is to climb things that can be climbed and learn. Rough season. Fitz had only about a dozen teams ascending to the top. The Cerro Torre has yet to see a summit supposedly this season. Kind of nuts, less than 2 weeks before the end of Feb.

OK, Fitzroy isn't on the list (so jealous), but mostly climb more regularly, not just a few times a season at Josh and the occasional session at Stoney. Trying to stay healthy too since tendonitis always seems to be nipping at my elbows.
Hit the Needles or something interesting in the Sierra at least once this summer.
Go backpacking with the kids in Tuolumne or Sierra.
A couple of bouldering trips to Bishop with the kids.
I'd love to get out enough to actually scrape off the rust and finally do Iron Cross at Suicide.

To go backpacking with my daughter after she graduates college in the Sierra, or maybe a June White Mtn. traverse. We shall see.
To stay healthy and recover while continuing to build strength in my core, shoulders, arms and fingers.
To climb things.
Watch Fat Dad get up Iron Cross.

For my 50th birthday 10 years ago I climbed 3 laps on Royal Arches (and 3 descents of North Dome Gully) plus 2 pitches on Swan Slab to make 50 pitches. Made it all in the daylight in late October.
This year I need to up it to 4 laps to get in 60 pitches. I looked at pre hanging 10 ropes off the rap route to facilitate 4 fast descents, but the logistics of getting 85 lbs of rope rigged and brought back down are enormous. I'm now thinking of losing 15 more lbs and getting back in the gym so that I can do 4 laps on NDG and still not be out there all night.
I've gotten in over 500 pitches soloing in the last few years. Hope to hit 1000 before I fold up the tent.

Trying to decide what routes to do in Wales in a couple of months. Don't want to repeat anything I walked up BITD and really don't want to embarrass myself now! :-/
