Praprottnikov Peak 954m a.s.l. (Chamois above Draga)

For a pleasant get-together we took it with Iztok to the chamois, which proudly stands on the ledge above Draga at the screes. Probably many know what I'm talking about. I knew the access wouldn't be easy, as Praprottnikov vrh aka Kisovec is riddled with gullies and steep walls. First we climbed Kisovec, then descended to the first suitable gully and traversed below the chamois. To the chamois then 30m climbing, I'd say good II, maybe even weak III. Careful, crumbly! At the chamois we refueled a bit then rappelled on rope to the ledge, climbed back to Kisovec and descended steep forest back to Draga. Classic example of how a walk turns into climbing. So what?! Just as long as it's a blast!
Cheers, Juš&Iztok nasmeh
