2011 Geo-Goals

Post by Handyman-N-Fam »

I resurrected this thread from 2010, but thought I would start a new one for 2011. I learned that I shouldn't have been so conservative with my goals for 2010. I accomplished them all with ease.
Here are mine for 2011

1- Complete the Ohio Delorme Challenge, including page 30 (7 pages to go)
2-Complete all 29 active caches in the Explore West Virginia Geocoin Challenge
3- Complete my Difficulty Terrain Matrix (8 toughies to go)
4- Become a Platinum Earthcache master
5- Find a cache on all 365 days on the calendar (347 down 19 to go)

My Current Goals for 2011 (trying to be more conservative than last year):
1- Reach 5000 finds - Complete
2- Get 3 more caches in the Cache Across Americas series (Currently have IN, MI, OH, WV) - Added 2
3- Add 12 new states - Added 14
4- Actually find some of the puzzle caches that I solve (yep, its a carryover, but with 379 solved and not found, it needs to be there)
5- Get to 250 US counties (currently 170) - At 320
6- Hit 225 virtuals (currently 142), 350 puzzles (currently 178), and 100 earthcaches (currently 60) - At 304
7- Finish the un-Zipped series - Completed through speed-bump (Now Archived )
8- Place a Wherigo
9- Host summer event and be able to MC it this time (I had nearly lost my voice at the last one) - 3 events
10- Become a "Frequent Poster" on NWOGEO forums - Complete
11- ...and most importantly have fun and regardless of the previous 10 points, remember it's not about the numbers...

or is it?

Although I'd really like to go after the numbers hard, I think I'd do better to just go for land mass instead. I want to get all 88 Ohio counties and then work on all the states. I think I have 22 or 23 states right now.

1. Hit my 500 by my birthday (I have seven to go, so, I should be able to make it. And go for my 600 or 700.
2. Try to do some Covered Bridge challenge caches, and try to complete the NCOG series.
3. Do some of the Ohio 88 challenge.
4. Have fun caching and not be sideline with illness and injury.
