Aaron had been talking about The Crack on Tweto all season. On March 29th Aaron, Ryan and I decided to give it a shot. However after skinning to the base of Tweto we realized that The Crack, North Face and saddle with Arkansas were too wind loaded to safely climb or ski. So after skiing some low angle pitches in the gulch, we called it a day and vowed to come back later in the season. Unfortunately this trip would not happen.

In honor of Aaron... Jesse, Nick and I returned on May 16th to ski The Crack. We were greated with stable spring conditions and had a great day sharing memories of Aaron and calling his name to the watchful Black Crows that circled above.
