This is why I work from home. So I can watch fresh FIFTY episodes as soon as they come out on a Wednesday morning

I've mentioned before - there's so little "turn around" content I come across. This series really illustrates the mental challenge of decision making, how agonizing it is.

I appreciate you not glamorizing going for it when you shouldnt. It as a major face in the sport it sets a really strong example of what to do in the mountains, and shows that the glory is just coming back from the trip alive cause the mtn will always be there

It means so much that you ended this episode with you seeing Mt. Dawson come back out of the clouds, but say 'not today, the mountain told us no'. Not reaching the objective is not failing. Thank you for documenting this whole journey for us through it all, I am beyond stoked for the rest of Season 4.

The kiwi pop-up was such an elegant and endearing roast. hahaha High quality content, stoked for this series to be back!

I always appreciate the conversations you and your team have in a situation where you decide it's not the time to go for it

If this is the sort of episodes we are going to get, I hope THE FIFTY gets to go on for years!

Watching Cody’s “mission aborted videos” through the years is a solid reminder of why he’s still alive and able to do this. I don’t think it’s always about being lucky or having great instincts. Sometimes it’s about pure knowledge and understanding of the environment that allows you to be more proactive to the potential dangers in the mountains.

“We were successful. We had an adventure. We’re going home.” That’s wisdom. Priceless!!! ❤

"We had a great adventure and that's all that matters" Love the positive attitude and perspective.

MY GOD! Stove on the shovel! It makes so much sense!…..no more slowly melting into the snow! GENIUS!

Great episode because it shows the decision making needed not just to enjoy mountains, but to reduce danger to yourself and others in the mountains. Checking off a line means nothing if you place yourself or your colleagues in serious danger.

This series is such a gift! Should be required watching for every skier/mountaineer. Thank you Cody!

As always, even when the goal isn’t achieved the journey you take us on is always the best part! Major props to Bjarne as always for doing everything everyone else does but also filming it.

"Successfully unsuccessful" is one of the best phrases I've heard. I'm gonna use that with my mountain biking students!

Another Masterclass in decision making by Cody and his crew. I love that about this series. Cool, calm and calculated.

Season 4 may have been off to a tricky start for Cody and Bjarne, but it is awesome entertainment (and education) for us! Looks like Smoothy brought the South Island weather with him.

Love this series. And I love episodes where the mountain says, "not today," and you listen and still have a great time.

The mountains are always going to be there for us. It's our fragility as humans along with our expectations and plans to make a film or achieve a goal that exact day that limit us from make it to the top, ski it, achieve that goal. But ultimately, like you said, they are always there...Nice story. Thank you guys

Just remember this released today and I literally could not be happier, may this series never end🙏🏻

So stoked this series is back!!! Always appreciate how Cody calls it off when he has to. There's always tomorrow, I'm sure he'll be back

That coffee break was longer than expected! Better get back to work 😂Another great episode, thanks 🙏

I really enjoy how you incorporate testimony/interviews from experts, both in person and over the phone. Also digging the nanopuff over the ski jacket. And my absolute favorite, the sleeping bag with the arm holes!

The attempt is always a gold nugget in your pocket 👌

Damn dude Greg and Sam are badass! Greg is out there skining in some heavy ass boots that Cody skis in the resort and Sam just making this whole thing seem pretty casual.

Inspirational. I lived in Chamonix for 12 years & followed you and Mr Douglas. Thank you :)

The king has returned.

Joy to see again, very sad Ms. Nelson. I always impressed about you safely idea. Best wishes!

Cool to see Cody testing the Headwall 55 prototype pack from Hyperlite Mountain Gear.

Another gem ! Thank you !

Perfect as always and smart!

Love it, thanks for sharing!

Simply lovely 😍

Another wonderful episode. Cannot thank you enough.

Never a bad idea to watch these videos! Excited you're back.

yes! love seeing this come back!!! heavily awaited

I was almost a bit worried, that something bad has happened. Glad to see you continuing the mission.

Thank you Cody, just in time for me to arrive in CO to start working for one of the resorts out here!! SO STOKED FOR THIS EPISODE

Proper mission. Great to see the series back again.

YES, I am so stoked for new 50 episodes!!!

I am so pumped to see another 50 episode. I have been waiting for this for months.

Been waiting for this for a long time!!! Super stoked for the rest of the season. Amazing job!

So stoked to have the series back!!!

So Glad to see The Fifty comming back ! That's some awesome content, Great Work !

Cody! Overjoyed that we have a new season. I have been looking forward to this so long and am so excited to see you continue your journeys. You are an inspiration and watching you ski/soak in the outdoors/challenge life itself is a huge joy.

I'll be watching this on repeat. Thanks 50 Project Team for the amazing content!

Great episode. I loved seeing some tough choices made.

Finally, I was waiting for the coming back for so long, tanks for the video Cody!

Another great episode. So glad you're back!

So great to see these again!

adventure well done! stay safe out there fellas and thank you for another season!!!

Absolutely amazing films! Thanks so much for sharing these, they make want to go back to the mountains. Cheers!

I really enjoy the ones you have to back down from, from a decision making perspective. Also, love the dedication.

Final episode last season was a serious journey, opening this season with another serious journey! Very glad to have you back 🤘🏼

Beyond stoked for season 4! The hunt for the 50 continues

So great to have these episodes back! Revelstoke looks ridiculous. Best of luck this season, awaiting every new video!! Stay safe!

Good to see Cody and cohorts doing their thing !

That ski back to the cars looked like enough fun to make up for getting denied on The Comstock. Glad you kept it real and turned around when things weren't optimal. Love your videos, especially the ones that show how hard doing the 50 really is.

Thank you again for this amazing series! Favorite ski content on KZfaq!

Powder looked great and you got to ski back to the van! I’m only through he scouting trip now. Cody is teaching us how to make decisions in skiing or in life. Thanks!

Nothing like FIFTY day! Epic stuff, love the stoke for the journey even in absence of the ultimate goal.

Some of my favorite times in the mountains have been when I've had to turn back. It's humbling and often difficult to do in the moment but everytime I get home I'm glad that's what was chosen. Thanks for sharing, I can't wait for more. Also, excellent editing!

I find it so inspiring to witness the humility and honesty with which you guys approach every single line. The decision making process is incredibly raw. Bjarne did a great job of capturing how big the scale of the terrain was, his cinematography just gets better and better. It's so hard to overcome that choking, arrogant voice in your head that is pushing you into something that could ultimately mean you never ski again and recognise, in the moment, its the mountain that dictates the tempo. Mad respect, can't wait to see you crush it next time.

haha to Bjarne's comment: "I don't understand your accent man" as I am also non amaerican and was thinking the same thing:)))

BIG mountain - good call coming back down in that weather !

The process is really the funnest part of these videos. The ski down is always hurtin, especially the first 1/2 of the decent.

Really enjoyed this video really cool to see how you respect and treat the mountain

I’ve been waiting all summer for this!!!!

Always makes me happy!

Welcome back, we missed you. Good choices, and good attitude as always. Skier-cross, aka combat skiing is in fact some of the most memorable returns I’ve had too.

Good to see you back...

I was expecting, but did not once hear any phrase featuring the word "sufferfest" . Impressive, Cody and crew! As an aside, my last major backcountry trip was to the Asulkan Cabin with several friends. Skiing right from the Asulkan Pass was a career highlight. Now I know what lies beyond the pass. Gorgeous terrain and environment. Thanks for the ride-along.

Snow flakes are falling and a new episode of The Fifty just dropped, this winter is starting off pretty good!

It’s been a long tough summer without your “buenos días”, Cody. So good to see you back again! Greetings from Spain :)

THE DROUGHT IS OVER! Seriously, stoked for this season! Lots of stuff in my backyard (live in Canmore), but beyond that, the best series on KZfaq.

Such a great series

Such a great lesson for those new to mountaineering, back country skiing, ect. If everything else goes well and you're physically and mentally up to the task, ultimately it's up to the mountain/weather to allow you to summit. Emulate Cody's approach and attitude.

Awesome Cody. You've created such a winner for yourself and the community content wise. Certainly inspired by it and have started to tick off some adventures down here in Oz.

YESSS been waiting for this season. So stoked.

Great episode crew, well done!

Incredible journey. We can all learn a lesson -- even baller pros like Cody Townsend turn around, live to ski another day. God I love Rogers Pass! Asulkan area is just incredible, had a blast skiing there last February.

“We were successful. We had an adventure and we’re home” WELL SAID!

just amazing. Thanks for sharing these gems

return of the king!

please keep doing this forever, we will pay for it

Such a rad video! Sucks you didn’t get to ski it, but like how others have stated, it is great to see true content. We turned around and that’s okay, the mountain will still be there!

Nice work, buddy!

That Buenos Dias just got me so stoked for this season.

you are being wise in the mountains and that day was just not the day. Wise decisions and yes the adventure is over when you hit the parking lot Sheila Vancouver BC Canada

excited for more

Cody, I’m sure you’ll get it this season. 🤞🤞🤞

Love the vid. spend time in Revvy evey winter. such a special place, a true ski town.

Cant wait to see the episode when you nail it!

Sweet Jesus that couloir is gnarly 🤯🤯

AWESOME!!!!!!

❤️Rogers pass. Love seeing a video from a place I ski all the time 😂😍. Great work!

Sweet jesus, finally a new episode 💗

Solid call… Precisely why ilg is still skiing with my 15 year old daughter at 60… Well done boys!

"Long ski down to walk back up" has MERCH written all over it.

Thank you. Turning around isn’t easy.
