Now thinking on 2023, I've got a few goals ready that cover stuff I got closer to, but missed this year:
- Pemigewasset wilderness as solo backpack (two night?)
- Kancamagus highway loop as two night bikepack
- Mt Dix slides trail in the Adirondack High Peaks
- Black Cat & Traveler Mtns N. of Katahdin in Baxter park
- Wapack trail as one-way end-to-end (bicycle to close the loop?)

It's not my plan to stress over it much if it doesn't line up, but I think writing it down at all shows me becoming that much more goal driven as a hiker.

So summer 2022 was the first year I'd set explicit hiking/outdoors goals, and it served me well. They were:
- push past the "4000' in one day" (hiking elevation gain)
- self-supported backpacking overnight
- Katahdin knife edge
- bicycle packing overnight POC maybe with teenager

I missed on the last but picked up a bonus trip with each kid in September, and I think I hit the right balance of specific and flexible.

So is the CW the same as marking the picture as sensitive? These Winter Moth (Operophtera brumata) are totally having sex.
