From Prehodavci direction on Hribarice a couple of snow patches, nothing much, from Dolič dry.

I left the car, just like 12 days ago, at the bend around 980m altitude, where skiable snow begins.

I ascended the path past Planina Blato. Three or four fallen trees by the planina are still there, plus one more above before Planina Pri jezeru, but no serious obstacles. The snow was frozen, but due to the emerging sunny day it was already softening in places. I tackled the water-filled gullies above Dedno polje along the bottom because I assessed that crossing the slope would cost more energy than a few-meter descent and ascent up the middle of the gully. In the valley Za Kopico the snow was partially softened here and there, occasionally ice spurs formed on the skis.

While I climbed to saddle Vrata fairly quickly, I was much more careful crossing under Vršaki. Unlike conditions 12 days ago, there were no small dubious hollows on the shaded traverse, but crampons were essential for safe passage. On Hribaricah the snow was partially softened, hard and partially icy in shaded spots, from there to Kanjavec summit mostly sun-softened but already reworked on hard base, so I didn't remove crampons. The last few meters to the summit were dry and hard snow. Conditions on the entire route were almost ideal for ski touring.

Kanjavec is known as a panoramic peak, but that day under cloudless skies the views were truly magnificent. I took about 15 minutes, then skied down (and on Hribaricah also a bit postholed) toward valley Za Debelim vrhom. Just before Lazovski preval a nice skiable slope toward Planina Krstenica tempted me, so I turned there. Shouldn't have! After about 300m elevation on Planina Jezerce the slope ended irrevocably, followed by about 2.5 km traverse with postholing, which I spiced with an unnecessary detour through steep forest toward dolinica Pod Ogradi, ending in a dry drop of about 100m elevation lower. So I turned back and continued the (to me) endless traverse to Krstenica. Luckily two ski tracks led there.

Krstenica was already in late dusk, I circled the planina once, but found no track toward Planina Blato (over Bušnica), and the path might be quite steep for night skiing. So I opted for the variant toward Vojam, where the track led. Near hillock Na vrhu I turned right with the track and tried to stick to the unmarked path to Planina Blato. But only tried! Numerous fallen trees made the path barely passable, had to detour sometimes 50, sometimes more meters up or down the slope, only good navigation to thank for repeatedly finding my way back to the snow-covered barely visible path. For about a kilometer of night bushwhacking I spent well over an hour, skis of course on backpack, avalanche airbag rocket dismounted and safely stowed. Descent from Planina Blato was mere formality, skied along the road to the car.

The ski descent from Kanjavec summit wasn't bad at all, hard and sun-softened areas alternated. No hollows troubling the turns, no dry untracked snow for whoops either.

And one more thing: road through Suha valley heavily icy in several spots. Despite careful driving and chains on front wheels (or exactly because of them) the car slid sideways twice annoyingly and ended up crosswise. Straightened it by reversing! So caution!

Thank you very much, Lijaneja. Maybe we'll meet in the mountains sometime, not just on the forum. And by the way: that stone of yours on the prusik under Šraj peski has already helped many out of trouble. Once me toonasmeh!

Has anyone recently traversed the path over Dolič to Kanjavec, is there still lots of snow?
Thanks

I don't know about the path from Dolič, but there's still a huge amount of snow in the Valley of the Triglav Lakes, so I think it's similar in the neighboring valleys..

Right under Dolič the snow stays the longest, because it's shady there. I remember previous years, if you didn't have winter gear it was hard to go over the snowfield.
That's how it was last year. Snow remains on the path and if frozen, it's a dangerous crossing.1

Yesterday we were at the top, via the direct path from Dolič. There are still some snowfields, but all can be crossed without issues.

Today I went from Dolič to Kanjavec. Below the summit of the mountain there's a pretty big snowfield that needs to be crossed. Descended from the top to Hribarice and past the hut at Prehodavci through Trebiški dol to Lepoč. The path from Kanjavec summit to Hribarice is dry.
I thought there wouldn't be anyone at the summit, but there were quite a few people.1
