I decided for Krn again. I didn't regret it. Today it was in festive attire. Almost no wind. Little snow on the south side. Only towards the top it was icy. Better to put on crampons. On the other side lots of snow, as it wasn't blown away. Few of us today. Nobody at the summit when I was up there.
The sky was like this in the morning.1
Plateau almost snow-free in places.2
And it was warm. I put the windbreaker in my backpack.3
I went around along the path.4
Not straight like last time.5
Some benches are still under snow.6
Towards the top, icy snow.7
Nice sculptures8
But the views were today..9
really beautiful.10
I stayed at the summit for quite some time.11
And no one else came after me.12

And there were clouds today.14

If weather allows I plan this Sunday from Lepena to Krn Lake. What are the snow conditions on the path? Is the path trodden and frozen or too much snow for trudging?

No one knows how it'll be on Sunday, as precipitation is forecast for Friday.. first have a peek at the weather forecast

That's completely logical, but I'm asking how the path is usually arranged in winter because I haven't gone here in winter. Even if I were interested in today's conditions, I'd probably get them too late on the forum..... don't you think? I also know how they forecast the weather, but I asked generally because if and when the weather is good, I plan that path.

In winter conditions hiking trails aren't maintained. Depending on the goal, take extra gear, more not less, and go. If you're lucky, someone's gone ahead marking the route, else privilege to break trail yourself.
Safe steps on trodden track or virgin snow!

From pl. Kuhinje in winter, consider current conditions; at 3rd degree better to Kališče, Dobrča or Kriška gora. Past Krn Lake in winter only touring skis or snowshoes.

It's true what gely says. I ask if I'm not sure about the conditions and when I go alone. Usually I still meet him at the parking lot on planina Kuhinja, where he waits for buddy Mrjan and they go together. When Krnska plošča is snowy he goes straight up. Usually footprints are made. At least there were when I went. Crampons and ice axe are mandatory already because of the steep slope. And good luck on the path I wish.nasmeh

Krn today 10.12. Lots of snow on the plateau. Only two of us were up. Mario was already descending when I was trailbreaking. Morning was still nice. Then more and more cloudy and windy. Wind erased all tracks in snow. It was snowing when I got to the shelter. I didn't go to the summit because no views. And freezing cold. When descending very poor visibility due to fog. Trailbreaking when snow collapses under you is quite tiring. For up. For down totally fine.
If it stayed like this, I wouldn't mind.1
but no.2
Going in the footsteps. They were visible only below. Towards the top the wind swept them away.3
December decorations4
now there will be even more.5
I meet a female hiker descending. From our area.6
She chats. Tells me it's blowing hard on top.7
nice flowers.8
here really winter weather.9

yeah need to go down. ASAP.11
bye unfriendly Krn today.12

Around 10 o'clock it was gone. Then only wind and cold. In the drink that was left to me, ice formed. All praise goes to the brand Ice Peak. I think it's Finnish. I had pants and windbreaker of that brand. Pants stayed dry although I was in snow and it snowed all the way down. Backpack and all else I had was soaked. In such extreme conditions quality of materials shows quickly.

When there is sun in winter, go to Krn, you need real luck with the weather.

On Tuesday I was under the south wall of Batognica. Conditions: packed powder snow, at certain places windblown to the icy base, which formed probably due to rain that fell during the thaw. The plateau looks quite solidly covered. From tracks in the snow I read that at least four went in the direction of Krn (+two were skiing). But it is quite cold these days so conditions remain the same, meaning under the plateau settled whole, partly windblown, hard also icy base below. How it is higher (plateau, top) I don't know.

Today 21.12. was a wonderful day. Some skiers and fewer of us walkers.
I left home late. Anyway I was alone.1
At 9:20 I started hiking from the parking lot at Planina Kuhinja.2
It took me three hours to the summit.3
I didn't go straight up the slab. There you lose too much strength.4
I kept to the left.5
the shelter is decorated.6
I went straight to the summit.7
it was windy there.8
and the views were great today9
and they were skiing down.10
great views from the summit.11
The foreigner arrived on skis.12
We were each at one end.13
No slab avalanches on the summit.14
Nice flag.15
The entrance to the winter room was snowed in.16
Matej came after me. He went straight over the slab, he told me, and it took him 4 hours.17
One more look back as I head down.18
Straight down. It sank a lot.19
Steep slope.20
