The FIFTY - 37/50 - The Family that Shreds Together...

Every line has a crux. The hardest part of the journey that puts up the biggest obstacle to a line's completion. Sometimes that crux is an ice climb, a bushwhack or navigating through hazardous avalanche terrains. Sometimes that crux comes in the form of something entirely outside of the mountains.
Near Revelstoke, British Columbia lies an ultra-classic, oft skied, powder hounding run called "7 Steps to Paradise". It's the first run most people ski when visiting Roger's Pass for the first time. So for Cody, the crux in this line isn't on the mountain itself, but lies in the new son he and his professional skier wife have brought into the world and the challenges that motherhood and fatherhood bring to a couple of professional skiers.
Starring Elyse Saugstad, Greg Hill and photographer Zoya Lynch. This is line 37 of 50 completed by Cody Townsend in his project to ski all 50 of "The Fifty Classic Ski Descents of North America", from the book of the same name.

Just want to say that I love The Fifty Project because you turn around, because you put your family and your life first. You know why? I'll tell you: because that's what the majority of us do and The Fifty is what the majority of us will never do. So we watch it through you. I intend to live for as well and as long as I can enjoy this sweet planet. And I wish for the people who broadcast me a chill evening, such as yourself, to do likewise. The RedBull death defying brigade have always been impressive yet always alienating. Whereas The Fifty from start to finish is just damn enjoyable to watch.

Won’t be long before the little nugget is pizza’ing down the greens and you’ll love it more than I can explain. There’s no doubt you could both ski every line in the fifty but if you don’t that’s just life.

My wife and I raised our kids in north Texas where there are no mountains. However, we made adventure a priority in our lives by taking them hiking, rafting, and skiing in the Colorado Rockies and the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina. We are all different people because of that and I definitely know our kids appreciate the heck out of it. Awesome job being adventure parents!

I so appreciate this episode! As a mom of a 2-year old, my partner and I have experienced the challenges of getting back into skiing and hiking once you become parents. I really love seeing the encouragement of Elyse by the whole team and the understanding that moms need a "good day in the mountain" too. Even supermoms need days off and adventures to refresh. I especially love Cody's comments about how she can go 2 hours on sleep and wake up with a smile and keep taking care of her son like a badass and how inspiring that is to him. Love everything about this episode!

As a parent of a 4year old and 18month old, this video is everything. The absolute struggles to continue skiing, mountain biking etc is very real. Elyse is seriously impressive and that must have been so tricky having to pump etc during a long ass day out in the field. My wife and I grew our relationship in the mountains and now with little ones in the tow its such a different season of our lives but even with the struggles, we somehow make it happen. Nice work Mom and Dad!

Our baby we had in March had reflux (colic) and even three months in, she was waking up, I kid you not, every 20-25 minutes every night, 6 hour witching *hour, no naps unless you wore her and rocked her. Luckily all I gave up was drinking instead of the outdoors. Mostly thanks to my amazing wife being understanding and us tag teaming it. Now at 7 months our daughter is passed that stage and we are having a blast. I wish this episode came out back then it would have helped a lot to see I wasn’t the only one struggling to navigate the new life arena. But again thank you for putting so much real life into these. Im sure there’s some other new Dads hanging their skis for the season that this will mean a lot to. Cheers and congrats on becoming a Dad!

Beautiful scenery, and congrats on the little one! Good for you to realize the need to reorganize priorities. The dreams and goals don’t have to vanish when the kids come, but the road to them may indeed have to be altered. Your kid is just a percentage of your life as an adult, but you and Elyse are 100% of his little world. 20 years from now I’m sure it goes without saying that he will be much happier to have a dad who came home safe every trip and was involved in his life than to have a dad who accomplished amazing feats but wasn’t there to raise him, or even worse didn’t come back one time. Stay safe and best wishes!

Reading Snow Sense and Staying Alive in Avalanche Terrain, you can sometimes forget how we assess and evaluate risk changes once we have a kiddo at home (or for me, a kiddo by my side). I certainly get it and truly respect the perspective presented here (and also the sleep factor with a new born is no joke.).

I struggle with letting a good snowy day pass without skiing and my partner is willing to sacrifice everything and I do mean everything for our kids. Sleep, time, health, everything. I love to follow the Fifty and from now on it's much easier to go without videos for a while, as I know how you are spending your time instead. Greetings and all the best for you and your loved ones.
