Yep....people have posted various segments of the Fifty by Cody Townsend. Just want to emphasise that the series is truly excellent. ValaisGrom learned more about snowpits, attitude to safety, all re-inforced brilliantly in the films. Great presentation - deep backcountry, friendship, mountain awareness, good music choices and bags of atmosphere. A must-watch set of shorts.

Can't get enough of this series. Love some of the decision making that they've done (in terms of deciding not to ski something which looks sketchy), but they're still nuts. Check out the pitch he's boot packing just after the 8 minute mark
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I've been listening to 2 podcasts with Cody (actually 1 interview which lasted too long for 1 podcast), he goes into quite a bit of detail about the work involved in The Fifty in the 2nd one, and covers lots of other stuff including The Crack in the first.
Absolutely loving this series, just watched all 22 episodes + the bonus episodes and am greatly impressed with his approach to the whole thing.
Not just chasing the 50, but trying to climb/ski the lines not just in a comfortable order, but in "which lines are in right now", which must greatly increase the timing/logistics of the whole thing, respect!!!
Waiting on 2020 bringing more of the same
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

@KenX, I think he commented the other day that it's become a thing to "don't be where Cody is" because it usually means there isn't a lot of fresh snow
