A bit more nostalgia
True, the rucksack isn't green but already imported from ČSSR
the shoes are the real ones from Alpina (shot on Storžič far in the previous century)

Let me add my "memories" too. Ascent on Grossglockner.
Knitted pullover from home wool, of course, same color knee-highs, velvet shorts, red Porenta rucksack, leather shoes well smeared with pig fat and crampons with straps. In background ice axe with wooden grip.

Well, also such summer "tourist" gear was relevant ...

I barely saved marks for ice axe and this ice hammer (both still serve me today). Without this hammer I'd hardly make that traverse in Kopinškova then, which was still very snowy. Made steps returned to buddy gave him hammer to cross. Then went back without anything for hammer carried it back to other buddy waiting and so on...That's how we played with life back then
smallest mistake would mean landing much lower...

Definitely you were at least one realization crazier back then than now. Otherwise trend went towards perfecting gear clothes and technique. In 1979 Lucifer climbed precisely Jan 20 79 unimaginable feat then... May 21 78` Devil's Gully in Prisank skied with spears not even mentioning Pallavicini 78`... Nostalgia getting you huh? But no one has those I-don't-know-what-it-eats pumps anymore. I searched unsuccessfully

Well, I'll add a pic from around 1970 myself.
Such "crampons" we made ourselves in the mornings during "shift", in the afternoons we added the wooden part from ash too. The rest of the gear also from those times. Photographed on top of Storžič.

This Topr backpack was practical. When stones were flying you shrugged your shoulders, bent down and already had it on your head protecting you
I still have Topr iberhose, blue pumparc and thick-ribbed velvet but that's long gone..

In the early nineties we still didn't know helmets and self-belay kits, the crowd on the Triglav path was already quite big then.

I'm getting more and more excited about the topic... There was quite some snow on Kopinškova... I was there a few years ago and don't remember bad problems (snow but soft, I admit I don't remember such a slope).
As for damijanp's summer gear pic, I must admit - I still run exactly that gear (well, helmet on head  ). Haven't found a reason to change it yet...

JusAvgustin - did you mean those "pumps"..?
Photographed two months ago.

@pelican
At the Czech Hut it's always nice, wherever...

@Juš, that Lucifer '79 doesn't surprise me that much... I'm more interested in Left Čedca, which was, if I remember correctly, climbed in 1985 - and that in a solo ascent. That must have been science fiction

Well, let me add mine too: my dad still swears by pumps, not like the ones pelican photographed at the Czech Hut, but now from different material. Sometimes he went in similar ones as the gentleman in the picture.
damijanp, I'd like to add this: I went to Triglav for the first time in 1992. Even then there was a crowd at Kredarica and indescribable on Triglav, so no real difference from today. But I have to say, we kids back then wore regular sneakers, thank God they always performed well. But really, if I think about it today, never again, since it's basic to go to the high mountains in quality mountaineering boots.

Katty, that picture from Triglav was taken exactly in 1992. Maybe you're on it.
