What's on your climbing bucket list?

1. Local hills and mountains
2. Knife edge of Katahdin - settling the score
3. Ben Nevis via CMD Arete - settling the score
4. Any mountain in the Alps
5. Mt. Whitney

I guess this isn't a very ambitious list.

In no specific order and a very dreamy list

Shivling
Khan Tengri
k2, Nanga Parbat, Kanch, Dhaulagiri, Makulu
Everest from Tibet
Tasman, GT Aoraki
Nanda Devi East
Robson, Waddington, Assiniboine
Mt Kenya, Stanley
Alpamayo, Huascaran, Chopoqalqi (sp?)
Maybe some Snow Leopards
Have a look more around the Charakusa
Whatever Damo might be contemplating..

Andes
All Colorado 14ers.
I plan on moving to Bolivia after I get my youngest out on his own.

2013-
Wetterhorn (San Jauns)
Some of the collegiate peaks
A Cali 14er

Mt Sherman is an easy hike from FMC. You could probably do Sherman and Quandry in the same day. Dont bother with the Decalibron loop, its boring, unless you want to say you bagged 4 14ers in a day. IMO
One of the best early morning views is from Horseshoe Mtn that is right by Sherman. You can litterally photograph 15 or more of the 14ers on a clear morning from there.

1. Denali
2. Alpamayo
3. Jasper Region (Canada)
4. Pickets

Lots more, but I don't want to fill up this thread.

I'll never have the time nor money for the exotic climbs so I have to keep it in my backyard:

Mount Olympus
Mount Stuart via the Sherpa Glacier
Little Tahoma
Glacier Peak
Baring Mountain
Mount Baker

I think Decalibron is a real challenge (if you try to do it in 2 hours) I actually haven't done it, but I did do Democrat in a little under an hour and a half. It took a while since I had a sick kid with me for the first 45 minutes.

It doesn't have to be, all those climbs/hikes are great.

I tried to make a list once...

It's impossible, there's too many mountains and not enough time, and I'm only 15!

i always wanted to 3rd Class 50 routes in Joshua Tree in one day. I guess i might as well drive to the tree this week and do it. Wish me Luck!

Polar Circus (wi5)
Cleopatra's Needle (wi5) done
Denali (done)
Denali via cassin ridge or slovac or something harder
El Capitan via a wall route (done), still want to do it via Nose, Salathe wall, and the Shield.
Palisades or Evolution traverse in winter
Leaning tower via Wet Daydream Denim as a solo
Shivling
Alpamayo
Cayesh
Beckey Chouinard on S Howser tower (done)
Rainier via Liberty Ridge (done). One of those NF routes would be sick(ening) to get done.
N Howser via All Along the Watchtower (hopefully free in a push)
Merriam via North Buttress (done)
Castle Rock Spire and the Fin in Sequoia NP
NW face of Half Dome in a day
Lotus Flower Tower via SE Face
Incredible Hulk-Red Dihedral (done)- Positive Vibrations and Sun Spt are on the list

Since we're plugging our own stuff...
