- ele=* elevation
- name=* name
- capacity=* sleeping capacity
- description=* fill more information with text
- access=* useful values are access=yes and access=private. NOTE. This tag should not be confused with the status of the operator (e.g., DAV/CAF/SAC owned vs. privately owned. Private would indicate that the hut is only open to members or associates of the owning organisation (this is the typical status for mountain huts in the UK, see discussion).
- operator=* typically used to indicate huts owned or maintained by a specific organisation, usually a club. E.g., [Mountain Bothy Association], [Österreichischer Alpenverein], etc.
