2012 Goals - May 1 Update

My hard number goals for the year are

1. Complete CAM 2012 - The Event is this Saturday and nothing is conflicting.
2. Hit total find count of 2000 with a stretch goal of 2500 - 1337 currently but there are ~20 caches that I haven't logged yet because of CAM. ~640 caches to go in 8 months
3. Get to 200 found days of the year - Now at 165. 35 days to go.
4. Keep my hide count to find count at least at 1 to 100 - 23 hidden to 1357 for a ratio of 1.7%
5. Get finds in my other 10 MD counties I am missing - 7 counties to go.

Soft number goals

1. Fill in more of the 2000 and 2001 months that I am missing - No new ones this month
2. Add more of the North East States - No trips
3. Get on the water and find some paddle caches now that I have the kayaks - Boats are in OBX to be ready for Memorial Day weekend.
4. More hikes! - Hiked for Nevermore 4/10, Hiked the GW Forest picking up two hard ones on 4/21, Hiked the CAM 2011 location on 4/27 and did a loop in Sky Meadows on 4/28. Picked up a bunch of points for the Mountain Trailmasters series.
5. Captain John Smith Trail: Finish it and visit more of them - Didn't make any headway here
6. Dig through the ? caches around and find the ones that are challenges rather than puzzles and find the ones I qualify for and work on the ones I don't - Picked up CAM 2011 Icebreaker Jigsaw. Qualified for YCH Challenge: Debunk a Dozen DNFs just have to go visit the cache now.
7. Find a 5/X and a X/5 cache or few - Picked up Willingham Knolls' Prickley Pick
