One of many stories that luckily ended well. So we can still read Bojan's interesting descriptions of mountaineering ascents. The "art" of knowing when to stop and even turn back at the right time. Of course that's no defeat, but great success, ultimately success of survival. At that moment comments matter least. Maybe someone wondered why you two with the gear you had didn't try to descend, say abseil down the rope and self-rescue from the wall. Maybe Bojan himself will answer, I already have mine. On this occasion I'd alert those who maybe missed it to an interesting article here: http://www.gore-ljudje.net/novosti/58459/#c13176

@ MBrando: Yes, it was Sunday. We called GRS when you two were already in the valley. Congrats on the successful ascent!
You know, maybe I heard you, because I heard human voices from the wall for quite a while.

Regarding payment, there really should be clear criteria. Otherwise I hardly believe we'll get away without a bill, but still hope this few-minute whirring won't cost me all savings from Zois scholarships last few years.

Thanks all for positivity and best regards,

Bojan

Bojan, double congrats for courage. Climbing and call for help. Just glad it ended safely. I thought you were doing master's only in mountain running, since you're very successful there, but see hiking, fossils, now also alpinism aren't foreign to you.
Wouldn't teach you goat prayers, since I know you too well. I know you're exceptional trail running talent who wants to succeed. If you devote to so many activities, it'll be tough in running.
Watch your ankles, see you Sunday on Dražgoška gora.

Sunday morning was really nice, so nice that it carried us towards the peaks of our mountains so I set off at 4am in pitch dark via Žmavcarje to Turska gora then to Skuta summit and past bivouac under Grintovec to Cojzova koča I don't write this so you know where I walked but because Mr. IgorZlodej's sentence practically woke me THE ART OF KNOWING TO STOP AND SOMETIMES TURN BACK AT THE RIGHT TIME! Bojan that's exactly what you did, and let it be a great lesson for all of us for further ascents to peaks.
Bojan I wish you many happy days overcoming set goals.
Best regards and good luck!

Good thing common sense brought you that far to gather courage and call rescuers.
Good-interesting story, every hiker surely fears this, I hike alone in mountains and am a bit scared I'd get lost somewhere sometimes.
For now I prefer easy paths, only then you're calm and carefree, rather than off-trail
