The Official Retail Partner of the FIFTY+
Alpenglow Sports is stoked to provide our friend and longtime customer, Cody Townsend, with the gear he needs for his new project, The FIFTY+! After 6 years of climbing and skiing 46 of the 50 lines in the book “The Fifty Classic Ski Descents of North America”, Cody's headed back into the backcountry in pursuit of new "modern classics."
In the process of skiing the classic lines depicted in the book, Cody often found himself curious about adjacent lines and what truly constituted a classic. This new series will chronicle his attempts at these lines, and subsequent determination of whether or not they should be included as a classic, based on his personally developed scoring system.
As Cody has ventured to more remote locations and completed more challenging ascents through the FIFTY Project, he often found himself being asked about his gear choices. What gear did he choose for a specific line, and why? As a result, rather organically, he became a trusted voice for outdoor gear choices and performance, and a new aspect of the series, gear reviews, evolved. Alpenglow Sports is excited to be able to utilize his experience with the gear we carry, and are honored to add his voice to our team.
