1. Climb at least 1 active volcano
2. Climb at least 40 mountain
3. Learn to ski good
4. Do all of these things whilst also not dying

Will update when possible

-----------------------------------

Week 1

1-2) Heavy rucksack hill hiking training session tomorrow.
3) Researched some skiing junk ?
4) Bought some lovely mittens so that I don't die from cold hands

Week 2

Did a bunch of walking about, finished buying kit for Scotland winter mountaineering into weekend.

Week 3

I went to Scotland and learned how to walk in crampons, use an ice axe and a few other winter mountaineering skills. I also summited a 1200m+ peak or two!

Week 4

Planned an adventure to Vietnam and New Zealand for the summer. Should be fun.

People looking for fitness advice should check out the general fitness/outdoors thread, it's full of really good advice with just a sprinkling of bad advice for flavour too!

Re: my NYR
I'm in the process of spending way too much money on some real nice mountain kit so I don't die

My resolution was to climb 40 mountains and I've done like 2 so yea don't sweat it if you're behind on your goals, there is a lot of year left

I climbed another mountain (it was snowing and very windy)

I'm still making my way up to the mountains when I can on the weekends, but in terms of actual progress I've found someone nice who actually wants to climb mountains with me (Therefore assisting with the whole 'not dying cold and alone on a mountain' part of my new years resolution!).

So I'm well on the way to achieving my goals. Also the volcano climbing trip is currently being discussed.
