At the northern tip of the Teton Mountains lies a ski line that in one continuous streak, stretches from lake to sky. The 6,000 vertical foot Skillet Glacier route on Mt. Moran is a classic ski line that begs to be skied. But with a six-mile lake crossing, a mandatory overnight campout, and an arduous and dangerous climb to reach the summit, the barrier to entry for this classic is high.

'The FIFTY' is a project to climb and ski all 50 lines chronicled in the book, "The Fifty Classic Ski Descents of North America". Over the next three years, Cody Townsend will be chronicling the adventures, challenges, and travels as he takes on a collection of the most aesthetic, spectacular, and hardest lines in North America.
