The most remote classic of The FIFTY, The Polar Star is an iconic ski line. Set on the Arctic island of Baffin, the Polar Star Couloir is aesthetic, breath-taking couloir set among an island of ice, Polar Bears and towering granite walls. Joining up with Cody Townsend on his attempt to ski "The Fifty Classic Ski Descents of North America" is one of the world's best ski mountaineers and steep skiers, Vivian Bruchez. Though the goal of the journey is to ski The Polar Star, a plethora of steep, challenging and beautiful ski lines await in Baffin...and a lesson in just what makes Vivian one of the world's best, comes to light.

Impossible not to have a huge smile by the end of this. Viv stole the show and really showcased how much each touring partner's personality affects the group morale especially when things get sketchy. So many creative anchors that are beyond mix climbing. What a pleasure to watch you all master so many unique features and be so incredibly calm while doing so. Big shouts to Bjarne for filming in such steep and at times dangerous conditions. A masterclass in short.

I've watched almost the whole FIFTY with my kids. My 4 year old son always asks, "he skis, why do we snowboard?" and "is that OUR mountain?". Which leads to funny conversations around growing up in California in the 90s and these not taking place at our now local mountain, Brighton. My 2 year old daughter absolutely loves the hiking/climbing parts and takes naps during skiing and monologues. So to Cody and the whole team, thanks for giving me a great off-season way to bond around winter sports with my family, all the while avoiding more Cocomelon and Bluey.

Too often climbing, skiing and misc. mountaineering content gets lost in slightly cringy attempts to provide some pretentious narrative frame. This episode goes for the angle beyond the immediate action - and nails it! What an excellent work of content this is. Cody, Bjarne and team succeed in treating and presenting alpinism better than most alpinism films. When they dabble in the personal interest angle - they do it better than most articles or biopics. This short epsiode gave me more added value on a mountain celebrity than did Herzog's documentary with Reinhold Messner. Bravo, and most of all thank you.

Since starting though, I've taught myself to ski and have really enjoyed watching you go through the parallel process of learning to climb and move through the mountains in a safe, controlled and measured manner. Always cool to see that no matter how much you've mastered in one area there's always room to learn more 🤙

Great job on your ascents and descents. I loved every inch of the footage. We had the same issue with a camp on the ice in a storm, with our tents getting ripped down in a storm. We also had it up on the walls weeks into our climb. It's primarily nice days, but when it hits, it's intense. I love seeing these adventures 27 years after we started exploring the Sam Ford Fjord. Keep it up! And good luck on the next adventure.
