Up at the hut for a couple nights. Snow conditions highly variable depending on aspect, elevation and temperature. Dug a pit on a NE aspect at approx 1800m and found the PWL about 85cm deep CT14. Multiple fractures and debris observed from previous cycle but surprisingly little sign of new avalanches observed other than on south aspects. Even with the lack of avalanche activity our confidence was low due to rapidly changing temperatures so kept it pretty mellow. Beautiful weekend in the mountains!
