Spik (Black Walls)

According to the Triglav report date, snow whitened these areas a bit earlier last year. Yesterday it was a pure autumn idyll. In the morning at Pecol it was a bit cold, partly due to occasional wind, partly due to shade on the path. But when the sun stretched its rays over the peaks, it was nicely warm. At the summit what everyone wants - sun and all-round views, with wallcreepers. It was so pleasant that on the way back we made another detour at the start of the A.E. Leva path, just enough to see the »Montaz face«. Then back towards the Brazza hut and to Pecol.
Yesterday was really that proper autumn day, according to the forecast, conditions will be more wintry tomorrow…

Most go to Špik Hude police from Pecol without skis. Today I went to this nice panoramic summit from Zajzera. Longer report here:
Since not all went to plan, I changed and around 9am ended up in Zajzera to check conditions above Špranja. First on ski trail, then at bridge to marked path, nicely snowy but hard, icy in places, with skins it went ok. Following tracks including Rok's to gully with falls. Continuing with skis didn't seem sensible, so put on crampons, skis and poles on backpack. Felt like kid carrying hay from Pohorje slopes in yoke again. Quickly passed familiar gully with ice falls known from previous years. At exit no point swapping crampons for skis, continued with crampons as snow held well. At couloir entry no tracks left (as Rok says), but found hiker tracks and used them. Ascent monotonous but not boring due to great views on surrounding peaks. Soon met step-maker, chatted, Austrian says super, but didn't get why he left skis so low. I went on, left skis on snow ledge ~250m past summit. Last meters to sun led by nice steps. Sunny side slight SW wind, climbed summit, sat a bit enjoying views. Then down to skis, prepped for skiing. As Rok described, upper part watch hard icy base, mostly great powder on "torn inflated". Below traversed right, hiked up trodden steps to small saddle, skied to pass between lower/upper Špranja. Pass hard, icy spots, torn by avalanches, but better than down gully with falls. Lower optimal through "thicket" hit well, then skiing along summer path on untouched snow to ski trail. If Hude police couloir more than excellent, lower part quite unenjoyable. Due to bad lower conditions, both notches above Špranja wait a bit. Nice ascent with lavish views.
Zajzera offers magnificent views already in the valley1

Awesome! How steep is this gully?

In the lower part slightly steeper than Jalovec couloir, in the upper final part it gets even a bit steeper upright. Otherwise detailed description here: http://www.gore-ljudje.net/novosti/35953/ and here: http://www2.arnes.si/~mcuder/dnevnik/040606.html

Today at Planina Pecol there was no crowd. Hut closed. Pasture completely snow-free. Marmots awake and playing pranks. Flowers slowly waking up too.
Let's try towards Špik Hude police - wherever it goes. And it went to the top. Need to cross some quite steep snow patches or bypass on grass. Very large snow patch somewhat below summit, summit rocky. Snow not hard, so without crampons. Down snow much softer.

Today we wanted mainly a nice »photo safari« nasmeh, somewhere in high mountains, with nice views and all that goes with it…nasmeh…Found all that at Planina Pecol and Špik hude police.
Conditions: last snowfall obviously richly endowed these ends, last third of path walked mostly on snow (visibly decreasing), return partly like swamp eek, summit practically rocky, some steep snowfields still there and for our »taste« not to cross without ice axe…Day of pure superlatives today…nasmeh

Biggest thanks to all! True, if "models" are good and "skillful" before lens mežikanje, and air clear, just need some (sometimes lots) patience to catch moment and result can't be bad...nasmeh
