1cm surface hoar just above the hut, small suncrust below on W-SE aspects. faceted snow below crust D10cm. Snowpack below that seems well settled. Did not feel any form of facets at ground, but did not dig down to investigate. There is a small crust that as formed on northerly aspects as well, but it is extremely thin.
