Kamniški Dedec

At half past six I'm thrown out of bed, the view through the window dazzles! Almost panicking I throw together basic gear, later while walking I barely feel any weight on my back. Grintovci with Kopišče shine in beautiful winter scenery, I'm totally beside myself! From the Hut in Bistrica I rush uphill. Snow-laden branches conjure a fairy-tale world of childlike simple feelings, where thought is no burden at all... Path not yet trodden, snow to ankles up to V Klin, no gaiters. Below hunting hut depth increases. From there to Dedec's head I wade virgin dry snow, mostly shamelessly slippery (no base), last meters sink to knees. To the summit thankfully with bush help... Heavens! View stuns and drifts detachedly...

Tour has despite all a 'beauty' flaw. Unfortunately in a hurry (afternoon job). After enjoying full garland of beauties, on boots I slide to valley. Snow pours during descent, snows from the blue...

Very nicely said - expand it a bit more and it will be for Planinski vestnik. The pictures are great too, I'll see it live at the first opportunity. nasmeh

Wonderful!
That's right, go to the mountains even before work: Praiseworthy, nicely written, the pics are very tempting too.

Nice regards

Already late afternoon at 17h, my colleague and I dashed to Kamniški dedec, we were quick because the weather kept changing. Otherwise almost no wind, wonderful view - can be good even on cloudy days. For soul relaxation. No snow, just the path is very little trodden. Good company and rested soul, that's it. lp

In addition, I was quickly on Kamniški vrh in the morning.

Can you tell me more about Kamniški dedec (mountain characteristics, approach, is the path suitable for ordinary hikers or only for alpinists etc.). I searched unsuccessfully on Hribi.net for this mountain, if I missed it, sorry.
Nice regards!

At least for me, it has an extremely nice view of the neighboring peaks, which are like on the palm of your hand (Brana, Planjava, and all from Kamniški vrh to Štruca, Kamniško sedlo, Lučki dedec.....to Velika planina. The approach is not demanding, just need to find the path a bit, go towards Kamniško sedlo, at the fork turn towards Srebrno sedlo, after a few minutes right across the stream, then you see the path (yesterday there was still snow over the water there). Then you reach a hut with a beautiful view. Behind the hut up a steep slope, on the forepeak to the east abyss, last meters a bit to climb and you're at the top. The summit has little space and is steep on all sides. Suitable for everyone except the slightly more dizzy.

The path to Kamniški Dedec is dry.

tol26. 01. 2010 18:17:32

Has anyone been to Kamniški Dedec in winter conditions this year?
What are the conditions?

tol27. 01. 2010 16:43:08

I checked them myself.
Useless. Snow totally unconsolidated, pure powder, if you step off the crampons the leg goes straight through to rocks and grass.

adnap27. 01. 2010 23:58:25

Dedec today at 10:44

Where are you, Tol?

tol28. 01. 2010 07:53:33

I was at the summit around 13:30.

MATJAZR28. 03. 2010 18:11:58

Today I went to Kamniški Dedec. Path from Kamniška Bistrica to hunting hut dry, only in Klin at stream crossing one hard snow section. A little above hut snow starts, which mostly collapses. Tough path section starts below Dedec through bushes. There sometimes you sink to butt. At summit... pics will tell. Back same path. From hunting hut also to Repov kot, then back to Kamniška Bistrica.
No crampons used, ice axe taken in hand now and then.
Very nice tour.

luka.28. 03. 2010 19:35:23

Hi!
Matjaž, approx at what meters a.s.l. snow starts?
Maybe know, is Kamniški vrh already bare?

Thanks!

MATJAZR28. 03. 2010 20:20:50

Snow starts above hunting hut, right around 1200m.
Kamniški vrh is bare.

Today my colleague and I also climbed from K. Bistrica to the top of Kamniški Dedec via the "hunter's path". Just as
" unknown - spotonbody mežikanje

" already described, the path from the hunter's hut onwards is quite snowy and requires huge caution. But I think we, or they, went too far left from the hunter's hut onwards, and it was a bit tricky to cross there and then steeply upwards. Well for the way back we / they ?? went at the big rock left down the gully and you reach right above the hunter's hut. nasmeh

Really good trip for adrenaline junkies, just in this snow you have to watch out not to slip somewhere into.... LP zavijanje z očmi
