Description of mountain:
Spodnji Rokav, marking the start of the Rokav group and Škrlatica range, ranks without doubt among our wildest and most inaccessible peaks. No ascent is easy—either technically demanding or orientationally challenging. Particular attention must be paid to the rock, which is not always of good quality; poor rock is more common than solid sections. I recommend the ascent in autumn, when larches glow yellow and everything shines. That's when you truly sense the "symphony in stone." And safe climbing on this extremely wild and solitary mountain.
There are two approaches, but I will focus only on the Potočnik-Tominšek route. This 700 m route, already among the more serious ones, is not to be underestimated—everyone who has done so has been badly burned. Enough words. On with the description!
