Dovška Mala Kepa 2077

Yesterday, fog was forecasted for the Julian Alps and it really was, so I turned to the Karavanke again, hoping it would be a bit better there. Haven't been to Kepa in a long time, but my goal was also to get to know the mentioned hill, as the path leads under it. The summit is easily reachable from the east, a bit more demanding from the west, but doesn't exceed II.
Kepa was very well visited, but my colleague and I were the only Slovenes. The road to the parking lot is nice, the short climbing section right after Gubno is also well equipped.

True, Matjaž! Despite a fairly high starting point, it's quite a long tour, though the peak barely exceeds two grands.

Question - which peak is actually Dovška Mala Kepa? From Kepa and also on the spot it looks logical that it's the first neighbor on the ridge (higher, more prominent), but all maps mark the lower grassy peak more towards Gubno. Also here on hribi.net the description is for one peak, but the map mark is on another.

Summit marked as Dovška Mala Kepa on maps.1
Summit that looks like a more suitable candidate for Dovška Mala Kepa.2
The first (lower grassy) summit marked with a triangle as Dovška Mala Kepa, with ??? the probable real summit.3

You're looking at the Austrian map!nasmeh I think it's clear regarding the elevations. The neighbors see their peak a whole 6m higher.

@lijaneja Actually this is the map as officially published by the Alpine Association of Slovenia (base is OpenStreetMap) - https://plangis.pzs.si/

And, which one do you think is the real Dovška Mala Kepa?
