The FIFTY - Line 5/50. - Mt. Currie, BC - A Sufferfest up a Canadian Giant

In the small town of Pemberton, British Columbia, the hulking north face of Mt. Currie dominates the skyline. Yet even after a decade of winters spent skiing in Pemberton, Townsend has never been up or down the mountain that steals your gaze from every spot in town.

Though most often skied with a helicopter drop, Cody Townsend joins Jon Johnston and Chris Rubens on a foot-powered slog up and down its 7,000+ foot face.

Mt. Currie doesnโ€™t come easily though as crucial decision making, route finding and an exhausting day make this classic a truly special one.
