What Cody Townsend is doing with his project The Fifty might be one of the most refreshing things to happen to the ski world in a while, but let’s not forget he’s not the first to do it! The whole project is based on the book Fifty Classic Ski Descents of North America, written by Penn Newhard, Chris Davenport and Art Burrows. Cody only has 20 lines left to climb and ski, but most of those won’t be safe to ride for another few months, so he took to the time to give us a little rundown of the history of his project, in between ripping laps with his wife and favorite ski partner Elyse Saugstad. If you haven’t already, check out our new short film On My Own Terms, about Elyse’s trajectory as a pro skier. But before you do that, learn more about the story behind The Fifty from the authors themselves.
