Nearby water sources if the Roybon spring is dry: Magdelen and Pissavache, Grand Gour is supplied by Villard. A poorly maintained fireplace that can quickly fill the cabin with smoke if the fire is not placed at the back. One corner of the cabin (bunks on the left side) leaks when it rains. INVENTORY: broom. No saw. No water at the fountain in winter. The dry toilets seem to be closed in winter.
