@VanSims: It wasn't stupidity, it would be if I knew the path, but I kind of misjudged, thinking it wouldn't be hard. One day before, I went with someone on Via della Vita and crossed all Poncas and descended still on the ferrata from High Ponca; it was a challenge. If I was able the previous day to cross all those Poncas, then this ferrata on Mangart also went fine. That first part wasn't so serious yet, first over one hole, then right over an easy jump. There I met the first hikers and they asked me if I wasn't scared at all, I went on. But the path became increasingly demanding, especially that last part of the path when the path becomes completely airy, brackets and vertical ascent there I was really quite scared, but I couldn't go back, and ahead it wasn't far. What looks from the other hikers were . But I think I at least set a record in speed ascent over this ferrata, because with gear some were only about at 2/3 of the path when I watched them from the edge down, and all had started before me.
A few more sentences for my first ascent of Triglav in 2010. It went without major problems, started from Krma past Planika, at Planika I looked up astonished at how hikers were ascending, I was a bit scared, but the others drove away my fear and gave me additional will to reach the top of Triglav. In the column I finally reached the summit, hurray, finally, and so I asked the others, now I succeeded in doing it solo, the return was supposed to be past Planika, but I went towards Kredarica. Some Croatian hikers went before me and some behind me, there I was really quite scared, no wonder the path is marked as very demanding. But the other people present gave me some will, assurance that together we overcome this descent, and we succeeded. Finally I arrived at Kredarica, first time there in 2010. Only the descent to Krma awaited me and so I finished that tour without major problems, all happy I told my parents at home that I had been to Triglav. If I think of Triglav today, I'd rather go to the summit at night to observe sunrises. I was on the summit 8x, but I also hiked other hills.
A bit about last year's ascent to Kukova špica and Škrnatarica sometime at the end of March. On Facebook we arranged to go together to Kukova špica. There was a set date, time, starting point and so 19 hikers gathered at the starting point. I was more in the background, it was dark, the path goes a bit there a bit here, mainly zigzag, I preferred taking shortcuts. Higher up I slowly overtook everyone, waited for them a bit and didn't wait for all, decided to continue to the summit. At the summit we rested, then arranged who goes to Škrnatarica, not everyone was for the action but still quite a few of us decided for the harder summit. Gully, chimney III that's what awaited us, the others descend lower, where they put on crampons again (before we had them for crossing the snowfield), put on harness, but I went directly to the gully and then up to the saddle. When the others arrived, the first one climbed up to belay the others, I followed him without belay, if I had fallen I would have been done for. I climbed that, the others were belayed. Back there was a need for rappel with rope and reverso, but I totally botched the descent, had the least experience for descending. Before us there was only the descent to the valley. Why I wrote this, because when we arrange group tours the rules are completely different, don't do stupid things, don't overtake, listen to others and learn something from them, understand them and pay attention to them, what they say counts, never do your own thing and, if you're not sure about the ascent, wait lower, but damn it I went when it suited me and that was a mistake. You go alone to the mountains and go when it suits you. Last year we went to Veliki Oltar and we went as one goes together to the mountains.
