“One of the finest tours in the Rogers Pass area, Seven Steps takes skiers down undulating slopes and benches below the summit of Youngs Peak.” (FCSDofNA)

On this proud and beautiful mountain we have lived hours of fraternal, warm and exhilarating nobility. Here for a few days we have ceased to be slaves and have really been men. It is hard to return to servitude.
— Lionel Terray

Near Revelstoke, British Columbia lies an ultra-classic, oft skied, powder hounding run called "7 Steps to Paradise." It's the first run most people ski when visiting Roger's Pass for the first time.

So for Cody, the crux in this line isn't on the mountain itself, but lies in the new son he and his professional skier wife have brought into the world and the challenges that motherhood and fatherhood bring to a couple of professional skiers.
