Looking for the definition of a modern explorer, only with an emphasis on high-performance? Then Cody Townsend is an adventurer for the ages. And what a cool human, to boot.
Cody is in the middle of an epic project, The Fifty, where he’s attempting to climb, and then ride, all of the lines in the book, The 50 Classic Ski Descents of North America. Now, classic to some means straight-up gnarly to others. It’s all in one’s perspective. But Cody is tackling them all, regardless.
The longtime freeskier who’s starred in hugely influential movies like Days of My Youth, started a vlog to document the project. But something crazy happened as he moved through The Fifty: the KZfaq channel’s popularity grew, not because of his audacious descents (which were notable), but because of his relatable personality. Cody brings it in a way skiers, snowboarders, and even non-mountain people, can relate to.

Live in UT and snowboard during the normal winter season at resorts. Haven't touched skis since I was 6, nor do anything in any true backcountry etc. Cannot get enough of The Fifty because of how interesting and relatable he makes taking a challenge and overcoming it (or not). Such a great series. Hope he finds 50 more to do.
