Bravo, it seemed to me your car was parked at Suhadolnik, and it's a looong tour, since car was still there at 3pm.

Kočni-Kralj-Kalska G.

The start was quite like an autumn-like summer season. There was a nice rustling under the feet. The start can be tricky for newcomers in terms of orientation, but I already know it well, as it was my fourth visit. Almost no snow up to 2000m except some hard patches. If you stick to the ridge properly, you don't need gear up to 2200m. From Vrh Križa it is already nicely wintery. I continue to both Kočne, descend the nicely iced gully high up, drier below. Up to Grintovec a bit more to the right and back via the middle gully to the summit. Descent via SE ridge over Dolge stene to the cave and Cojzova koča. For the cherry on top, a jump to Kalska gora. Below Cojzova koča, do not remove crampons on either side yet, hard snow. Leave Lesce chains at home, crampons are used.

In the afternoon I decided to go to Kočna via SW ridge, pathless terrain was known to me, at the summit almost short-sleeve weather. Descent along the marked but very very scree-covered path. The scree fields are super for descent, very strenuous for ascent.
second cart track at the last parking lot, steeply up1
before this there was logged wood and view opens to Kočna, right bend is left behind and under wall go left to grass, then up and higher slightly right to2
those lojtricas, up and higher slowly slightly to the right3

I was today on the SW ridge - first time. Above lojtro I must have gone astray somewhere, probably too far left. In that spruce forest I found no good orientation. One rocky jump between spruces I barely climbed. Then I climbed up the gully, which ended with a boulder (pic 1). Past it easier II on the right. Then I found myself on the ridge at a small grassy saddle ca 1820 m (pic 2). From there I traversed right through dense spruces and scree. At first I cursed the scree, but in the end it helped me, as without it it would have been hard to descend the rocky jump to the steep grass under Mali vratci, when I finally reached the “right” pathless terrain. The SW ridge itself is pure poetry. Some trouble still finding the wire between Na križu and Kokrska Kočna. Fog, scree… quite annoying on the pathless descent.

Where did you do the descent? Back the same path or maybe over Dolško Škrbina?

Is the connection from Škrbina to Grintovec still closed due to landslide - no detour anywhere there?

Back directly from Kokrška Kočna down over Dolce. Didn't go to Jezerska Kočna and further over the notch. So don't know in person, but saw a sign at Cojzova koča that the path is closed due to landslide.
