Natural avalanche cycle as expected to size 3.5 on solar aspects. Some stepping down to ground or early season layer due to mass. Numerous size 3+ observed. Lots of roller balls and wet sluffin on north aspects, but no significant avalanche activity or crownlines could be observed on polars. Heavy wet snow and lots of cake like snow below 2100m. Surprisingly no pillow failures and just storm snow shredding on features below the hut.
