Has anyone been to Brana these days? Is there still snow anywhere on dangerous sections?

maregol1. 06. 2017 18:23:37

No more snow. Regards

Maregol, don't talk nonsense, there is definitely still snow in the gully below the summit. Pic 18.

So I went to Brana via Kaptanski greben, descended via the path to Kamniško sedlo and didn't step on snow. If you think I'm bullshitting.....whatever then.

We've told you several times already that you normally bypass the paths in picture 18 beforehand, both in summer and in winter. You're ridiculous already with that chimney. The one who now walks through that snowy chimney, I can easily say, is really hecen. Tinky, you should know that, since you've been up there many times.
Good luck

I think it's about the marked path which goes through the chimney and is snowy. No one who's first or second time on Brana knows you can avoid the chimney with a bit of climbing.

On Saturday it was my first time on Brana (as well as for some other hikers I met on the way down to the valley) and none of us had a problem "finding" the path that avoids the snow patch in the chimney.

Bravo
You just need to look around a bit. The little man is standing; if winter took him, we'll make a new one mežikanje

I went to Kamniško sedlo to check if the hut has long-term staff again. Jerca and Simon are already serving diligently; Milana won't be this year. The hut is officially open from today. The weather wasn't the best, but I still visited Brana. In the hut, quite a few young climbers who had climbed in Brana and Planjava.

The snow has cleared nicely. Tinky, what machine do you have for shooting photos? Zoomed-in pics look very good.

Nothing special, a few years old Canon. Power Shot SX 260 HS, with 20x zoom.

Brana today 30.6.2017
The goal was Šija, but it kinda failed. When parking under the waterfall, surprised by gusts of west wind. Tell buddy: today it'll blow!
The higher we climb, the worse it gets! When crossing scree under Brana, we decide: to the summit via normal route, the ridge will wait.
On top, it blows so that gusts carry me. Not sorry we didn't use the ridge for approach. Hands so frozen, barely make some shots. Descent to Okrešelj tricky at times. Have quite big sail velik nasmeh

so sometimes grab rocks by path not to be blown into depth.
Out of wall, descend instead of path to Okrešelj under Pasje sedlo. Have time to explore some more. At start, minor orientation/terrain issues. But finally, the sought is found cool

Peaks in dark gray fogs, we hurry down.
lp

On that peak we last time stood instead of on Brana

It's quite good the way it positions itself in this wind

Down the scree instead of towards Okrešelj

Brana today. Well visited. We left it for the last day of the tour. Slept at Kamniško sedlo. Descended to Okrešelj and then to the mountaineers' home to the car.

Yesterday to Brana, although no views at all, really absolutely nothing. Just two piles of rocks and a cross.
Most sun was at Kamniško sedlo, all surrounding hills more or less in fog. But flowers attracted the looks more, really in all colors.
The hike was still good, and there are no bad hikes nasmeh
