Yesterday I was on Cold Mountain.
Starting point Matkov kot and descent by the same path back.
The crossing under Matkov Škaf is dangerous, where ice stalactites and rocks of all sizes constantly fall down, so helmet is mandatory.
Not much snow, starts around 1600 m off the path. Around 1800 m snow also on path but with bare spots in between. Higher up more of it, around 20-30 cm quite hard and firm, winter gear recommended.
Last 100 elevation meters path almost fully snow-covered, summit little snow but mostly dry and bare...
lp.

Enjoyer. And probably whole tour solo?

Tone, I met two couples on descent on way to Okrešelj.
Otherwise quite some cars at valley end in morning.

Yes, Drago, those two couples probably wouldn't go up if they knew that in December there's no sun on Okrešelj.

Hi!
Maybe someone knows something, what are the conditions this year regarding Matkov Škaf, how much snow is there, if any?

Today to Mrzla gora from Matkov kot past lavorja, oops, Škafa, and further across still snow-covered Latvica to the summit of Mrzla gora.
On the way, one needs to cross one snowfield between Škaf and skok and a short section at the first zajla (chimney). Skok is not yet clear, but there are already cracks that will soon prevent direct approach to skok bolts. No more snow on the ridge above Latvica.
I descended via Krnička gora and Matkova krnica.

Descent from Mrzla to Krnička is good for the nerves..

What are the conditions on the path past Okrešelj? I'm interested from the fork onwards to Mrzla gora, still snow? Thanks

Today on Mrzla Gora, descent via Hudi prask. First time on MG and honestly, the mountain left me cold. Exposed yes, but well marked, protections not too many, besides it's extremely short - to the top barely 2h20min. Demanding, but much less than one hears. Hudi prask offers troubles of all sorts, right choice for connoisseurs.

Such could write many from alpinist circles or someone who has already covered or climbed a lot.
But this is a marked path not to underestimate and mislead first-timers. Protections certainly not too many.
I agree, the path is not long and time for it somewhat overestimated.
Descent via Hudi prask not recommended, not for descender nor especially for those possibly below as "easy target".
What can happen to someone unfamiliar with the mountain see in rescue report...

Again just boasting and misleading! As dprapr said, don't mislead the visitors of Mrzla gora. Don't be too brave, usually just such ones tumble down somewhere. And what, say, doesn't leave you cold, sonny4? Space shuttle launch?

Thanks, Drago and Becar! I too, as an average hiker, after the previous average difficulty rating, told myself: "then I can go to Mrzla gora too." But nothing will come from this flour. Thanks again for the warning.

@lino, you're really a strange guy that 31 pages on the Mrzla gora topic didn't give you the right picture of the ascent difficulty to it, but one underestimating post did.
Maybe it's still better that you stay in the valley, Mrzla gora look at from afar.

The more I read, thoughts race through my head: Sonny4, have you even been up there? Down the prask? Most who dare go up the prask and not down. I haven't gone down the prask yet, tried both routes years ago and must tell you neither is easy.

For descent Hudi prask is suitable at most in evening snow, in summer only as emergency descent from the ridge. It is too loaded and as I wrote above, the descenders too much endanger everyone in the gully below them.
