In the latest episode of Cody Townsend’s THE FIFTY series, the Lake Tahoe-based skier takes us through the preferred gear he’s been using on his quest to climb and ski all of the lines from the book, Fifty Classic Ski Descents of North America. Besides physical fitness, planning and experience in the mountains, the gear you take with you can directly factor into whether you succeed or fail to complete your chosen objectives. Enjoy this near-15 minute episode of Townsend diving deep into the skis, boots and bindings that he relies upon.
