The FIFTY - Line 22 & 23/50 - Mt. Washington, NH - The Eastern King of Backcountry Skiing

Man, I have never seen Huntingtons like that EVER! YOU ARE SO LUCKY.

vertical ice skating

Cody, Mt Mitchell in the Black Mountains of North Carolina is actually the highest peak east of the Mississippi at 6,684', Mt Craig, also in the Black Mountains, NC, is the second highest at 6,647' and Clingman's Dome in the The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, TN/NC is 6,643', and the third highest. Mt Washington is 6,288' but definitely your cup of tea, weather wise. Ski on!!! Love watching your videos!

Awesome video.i live in Nh love mnt Washington sick place!

Kinda bummed out man no summit run maybe next time

Western skier truly have no clue how great Mt Washington is.

Type 2 fun is a reference that you only get after a while

The vibes are all-time in this one!

Trust me Cody...there's pow in the East for more than 10% of the time out here. Try off piste at Jay, The Loaf, Sugarbush, Stowe and several other back country lines and on and on....

Reminds me of Mica Black's crash at the finish line of the Snowbird Extreme Comp back in the day. I was shooting him and you were right next to me. Remember that day, I do like it was yesterday;)

That's a wicked hill but you can't get there from here.

Man you hit the jackpot with conditions. We rarely get these conditions anymore. In the last 15 years, we’re seeing much more warmer temperatures/warmer days. Thus turning these places into an ice luge.

Good film, well done.

You should try Lafayette in Franconia Notch

Love the series! Quick correction; Mt. Mitchell in NC is the highest mtn on the east coast @ 6600ft

Mt. Mitchell is the tallest mountain on the east coast at 6,684 feet. Mt Washington is the tallest mountain in the northeast.

Awesome footage. Thanks for sharing your video.

Love the video and love the series Cody! However Mt Washington is not the highest mountain on the east coast. That title belongs to Mt. Mitchell in NC :)

Love that east coast crunch!

A ridiculous stat when I first saw it for most deadly mountains in the world:
Ranked as most deadly immediately after Everest, Mt Washington at a whopping 6,100 ft.......had to do a double take. An unfortunate result of easy access and extreme temperatures. Such a crazy random little Mountain that needs more respect.

Alright, now you have to ski Katahdin. You'll find some of the most remote and epic lines anywhere.

I'm watching a couple episodes of the Fifty every day, from the start. Loving the way it's evolving over time - more mountain info up front (map, distance, vert etc) and the way there are more and more friends every trip!

And the way it makes me feel! Thank you Cody and Bjarne 🙏🏼

It's about the land

I’ve grown up riding in the NE but Mt Washington always amazed me. It’s like the Rockies over on the east coast

Been binge watching this project for days!! I love it!! You guys are doing some really cool stuff. Excellent videography Bjarne! Netflix level series here

It isn’t the tallest mountain on the east coast but as far height goes for mountains on the east coast their not that tall.

Mt. Mitchell (NC) is the tallest mountain on the east coast, breh.

I am born and raised on the eat coast. It is where the hardcore skiers and snowboarders are. Thee we east is cold. I was going to the top of whiteface on lift with wind chill it was -50 f. Coldest lift ride I have ever experienced

I've never been colder than in NH at night, in Nov, during that dump event right around Thanksgiving 2018, right up by Mt. Washington.

Boarding was ALL TIME, was grabbin 3' deep pow stashes out on Jay Peak BEFORE DECEMBER!!!

Ski scene out there is small town homey and frikkin hardcore!

6" pow stash LESSSS GGGGOOOOOOOO

This sounds a bit like skiing in Scotland. Sure we don't get the deepest powder or the longest seasons but its the community. Hundreds of backcountry skiers waiting for their moement to shine in Scotland. On a good day we have the best skiing anywhere in the world but the community sticks together through seasons and conditions that done give much snow. I personally love to see proper backcountry communities thriving, ours in Scotland certainly is with major big lines that are in condition once a decade.

Love Tuckerman’s Ravine.Skied it several times in my youth . It’s all about the beer in the parking lot after a great day of wiggling ! (ESPECIALLY THIS YEAR )
All skiing is good.
Some skiing is better ,
Every run is the best!
FIRST RUN- Last Run- ALWAYS THE BEST RUN - Everyday we wake up is a good thing ! Keep on wiggling
down the ski hill !
WhenEver You Can !

Love the drone shots!

Did the crampons attach to your ski boots?

I met Andrew a couple days ago at his business, super nice guy very nice to talk to and really friendly. Pretty much everyone I have met up here in New Hampshire is really friendly, awesome place, and even better people

Best back country content there is. Inspirational

Northeast backcountry skiing is definitely some of the best and most rewarding in the country! Check out our channel if you are interested in some classic backcountry ski lines in Vermont!

Love that squeaky snow!

Geez that one Ryan guy is a real obnoxious dick. Next time, leave him at home.

I didn't know mountains like that existed on the east coast.

This episode was so great. Pure fun and a great ride.

No headwall? LOL when you see experts taking the side routes you know that the center route over the headwall is a big decision..LOL Probably not enough powder for that..

Thank you for this. I'm a hiker did every high peak on the East Coast but Godfather Mountain in NC, I stopped my voyage on the AT at Roan. And Mt Washington. Going to climb it this summer. I only saw it as a kid, when we visited NH years ago. Appreciate the Ski the East Love ❤️

gotta check out katahdin too Bub

Skied Tuckermans Memorial Day weekend of 86 (87?). Climbed to the base of the bowl hand carrying skis, boots and poles. Totally gassed, climbed face of bowl via carved set of steps. Geared up, scorched down one time and called it a day. Totally worth it.

Was that guy channeling his inner Rut Daniels?! Didn’t go 20!!

Did that mouthy guy just talk shit and take off? lol

"I like the east coast"

When I click this video I thought you were talking about Mount Washington Vancouver Island BC
