Let me brag a bit too. Last Saturday on Prisank, today again to Vršič and first time on Jalovec. Return over the shelter below Špička. Despite early start, the sun was scorching hot on return. Took 7 hours for the whole path, won't comment on difficulty since I was in high mountains anyway!
And a couple pics.

Today we two also went to Jalovec for the first time, namely from Vršič over Jalovec notch, we descended past the shelter under Špička. There were quite a lot of people, weather on top nicely warm (almost hot), for descent already really boiling, which totally exhausted especially me. But nice ascent, at least climbing part to glacier, no living soul and nice to climb  . On Vršič sheep were cooling

If anyone goes to Jalovc from Tamar, leave the car in Planica, because further it is not allowed and rangers walk handing out penalty tickets gol popat !!
Watch out at the big jump in Planica STOP !!!!

Only sensible, as you have to follow TNP rules (legislation) and of course signs! Would you drive straight to Jalovec by car?

Exactly so, it's not that far, and one warms up nicely.

To be honest, the walk from Planica to Tamar really poses no problems...in the morning (and you warm up nicely if going over scree hehe).
Other thing is return when fatigue shows and path from Tamar hut to ski jumps drags terribly...but whaddya gonna do, that's how it is. If it's hard for someone let them take another path or none - no use whining.
But if I kinda get whining about path from Planica to Tamar lasting good half hour; don't get whining about parking in Zadnjica...if park right at start it's just 5-10 min to barrier

On Friday I went to Kanjavec from Zadnjica. Parked at valley entrance, 10 min to ramp, yet about 15 cars at ramp despite that, mostly our plates.

Yesterday first time summited Jalovec. Definitely my toughest, most dangerous but by far nicest tour so far.
Started at 6 from Vršič towards Vel. Ozebnik (skipped hut uphill). Access path/traverse nicely cool and great views over Trenta from start. But exposed in places, careful in rain or if dark catches on descent. At 7:30 out of forest starting ascent to hut/wall already full sun baking. Ascent almost unmarked but path easy to follow.
To first wall in 3h. Poles useful in first wall part, fold just before first chain. First part Vel. Ozebnik well cabled. Who has self-belay kit, bring it. Very exposed some places. Few pegs bit "loose". Second wall part not for faint-hearted and insecure. Extremely friable ground, practically no protections, followability poor sometimes. Luckily exposure milder than first part. Not every slip fatal anymore.
Similar but steeper again in Jalovec wall. Plus extreme risk of rocks on head as all in one chute straight up. Was one of few without helmet. High time to sort that.
Ridge exposure real story. Extra was strong wind so good part of ridge on all fours. Not elegant but practical :D Path following around ridge poor - too few marks!
Summit in 4h50. Wanted to stay hours up but scared of stronger wind, finished after 1h. Given afternoon wind down at hut think right decision.
Good people still: Radler at Vršič free this time as fun all-winds trio treated me, we shortened time part way to Vršič. Then gladly drove them to Planica where car.
My estimate Vršič-Jalovec (access+wall/s) physically like Škrlatica but more dangerous, technically demanding, bit crumblier. Only plus comfy stay/retreat to Shelter under Špičak.

Forgot one interesting bit in previous post. On descent from top (again) met that girl Pia doing SPP in 30 days. Really nice that after two+ weeks still looks "like a rose", and about experienced so far besides troubles lots nice to tell. Clearly doing it "for her soul" and enjoying.
Interesting contrast to recent record guy who rushed so much half invalid to finish and there solemnly sighed "Never again.". Wtf?

Yesterday on Jalovec. Start Flori in Zapodnu - Hunter's hut - Mali kot - Goličica - Jezerca - summit and down to Špička, then to the valley. On the ridge it really pulled a bit, but nothing special, it has been much windier many times before. Otherwise trail without peculiarities, still beautiful as always, all protections flawless, view not like in winter but still nice.

Hello
Is the path to Jalovec more exposed than the Slovenian path to Mangart?
thanks

| lanževica5. 09. 2012 19:36:02 |
yes, the path to Jalovec is more exposed

Is it much harder than the Slovenian one on Mangart? Because there it went without problem, now we would go to Jalovec over Jalovško škrbino and down past the shelter under Špička??
thanks

What about comparison of path to Skuta from Kamniško sedlo and path to Jalovec past shelter? Thanks for help.
