A week ago it went without ice axe and crampons. I assume they are even less needed now. Maybe it is not good to be too early, as the sun a bit later with the current strong inversion nicely softens the snow that there is.

Indian summer continues and one would think that nice conditions contribute to more visits to the mountains. Just before Kurja vas they are building a new little bridge, the excellent contractors didn't think it important to inform drivers with a sign, so back and past Psnak to the valley. Otherwise there were quite a few cars in Krma, but altogether I saw fewer people on the tour than those. I start with a small backpack at half past seven at minus 2°C. With fast walking summer pants suffice, as I knew it would be warm later and thicker ones would hinder me. At the trough above Prgarca something distracts me, after a minute of walking I realize I am on the path to Konjski preval instead of the classic one, but I didn't feel like turning back since I have plenty of time, so I continue. The path all the way to the pass leads in the shade, so there was still snow everywhere, in the lower part even ice. I really enjoyed the steepness, there was no cold anymore long ago, no wind either. From there onwards sunny exposure all the time, snow just a pinch. At Kredarica soon after ten, I don't even enter the hut, as I change clothes and snack on the warm sun on the bench in front of it, and enjoy like on the beach. I put on chains, as the snow was hard only in front of the hut and above it, where I went to photograph the surroundings. Down I remove them right at the start of the descent, 100 meters below the love bench, where there is already 90% bare ground. Understandably I go down the classic path and lo and behold, damn, at the parking lot there are just as many cars as in the morning Since it is midweek, I don't stop at Dani, following Ivota's inspiration only at Gorenjc and pour the belated Martin

A month has passed, conditions excellent, will the best and here again. Almost headed to Kurja vas again, but detour past Psnak, since the little bridge surely is not drivable yet in a month, or is it?? Road quite icy, snow starts at Kovinarska, 300m before parking the tracks are already so deep that I crawl there slowly on my belly At 7:20, at minus two I leave the parking where there are still five cars. Temperature rises above the first climb, snow height increases too, the path is nicely trodden. Someone did a good job with the motorbike and sawed the annoying branches that were overhanging the path too much. Walking was pure poetry all the time, warm at the top too, I didn't need gloves. Today only a handful of people here, I saw two at the top too, no skiers or ladies.

Tone, does snow (top layer) soften during day, or stays concrete?
|
|
|

| lijaneja11. 12. 2025 20:57:10 |
No concrete anywhere, Jure. On the descent down the steep slope I chose full steps where only the heels sank nicely, for the ascent from Prgarca with chains, not for safety but for faster walking.

Super. Just don't go up with new ones, because on some parts snow is heavily windblown and rocks are exposed underneath.

Thanks, Boštjan. Yes, next year I'll try all from my 'iron repertoire', further ahead probably some Rokav will drop out .

From FB notifications I've seen several times that you can't go without crampons...

The road was plowed before the weekend, but not down to the gravel, so it's icy and tire tracks are pronounced in places, even with deep potholes, not suitable for low cars. But people drive up even without 4x4, so basically you can get to Kovinarska. Passing is almost impossible. Not many parking spots at Kovinarska, over the weekend they parked one behind the other. Some parking spots further under the last slope before Kovinarska. Otherwise you can drive almost to Kurje vasi along the road.

I'd upload some pics for friends, but it doesn't work (issues for a while now - both on phone and PC). Please, admin, for help/instructions. Lp Igor Ps: Thanks for the road info
