At the start of 2017 I had written down some spots I wanted to see for the first time, or re-visit after many years away.  All for the most part in Western Massachusetts, with a few exceptions.  

  1) The Lead Mine
  2) The Goshen Stone Chamber
  3) The Balanced Rock in Williamsburg or Conway
  4) The 1926 Memorial Plaque set in a rock in Williamsburg / Conway
  5) Chesterfield Gorge, including a run along the old path
  6) The Thoreau Pine and Grandfather Pine in Monroe State Forest
  7) See some of the many large boulders in Monroe State Forest
  8) Continue with Savoy Graveyards, especially to find the 2nd Hathaway Burial Ground
  9) Check the waterfalls above the Hairpin Turn on Route 2
10) Hike the Tophet Brook, as much or little as possible
11) Balanced Rocks in NY State and Pittsfield/Lanesboro
12) Burnt Hill in Heath

That is it for now, I will update with additional items and hopefully complete a few of these in 2017.
