-8 and and cool in the morning but warmed up when the sun came out and south to west aspects TL and below got moist. While skinning in undistributed areas we had some whumpfing but the snow was supportive and ski pen was never more than 25 cm but when you got out of your skis you sank to the bottom of the snow pack. Nobody was parked at bow and suspect nobody has made it into the hut recently due to avalanche conditions.
