The station is intended to help provide evidence of climate at high elevation and to assist in conservation management and nature recovery on the estate.

Monitored variables include wind speed and direction, air temperature and relative humidity, solar input, snow depth, barometric pressure, lightning strikes and water level and temperature in adjacent gully; soil moisture and temperature at depths 5 ... 50 cm below ground level. Rainfall is measured at two aerodynamic rain gauges.

Logging interval 15 minutes.
