I'll describe the two-day tour here, because Spodnja Šplevta was the hardest.
On Monday I drive all morning to Mojstrana, there were quite a few traffic jams and a bit after 10.30 I finally walk along the long road to Poldov rov. I tried hitchhiking, but no luck. At 12.00 I start from the road towards the bivouac, which I reach in 2.5 h, in between I shelter a 15-minute thunderstorm in a cave by the path, so I wasn't wet. In the bivouac I shelter 1.5 h because of heavy rain. Late afternoon it clears up and I go to Šplevta, still a bit doubtful about the weather. Still, I try for Oltar, which I reach nicely without major issues, only at the entry to the first part I was misled by "abandoned" trekking poles and went over rocks instead of the small gully. From the top the view opened in all directions. Clouds also gradually disappeared. Then I carefully descend to the bivouac, where I spend the night, again alone.
In the morning to Suhinjec, which is marked in OSM under Spodnji Rokav. Access to it is not demanding, from the scree you need to take a nice grassy ledge that leads to a grassy shoulder and then to the narrow grassy summit. Then to Dovški križ. The path is nicely marked. On the descent I check out Šplevtin ridge and Spodnja Šplevta tempts me.
I go once more over Šplevta and through nice grasses to the next little summit which is not yet the top, where I leave my backpack. Then along and on the ridge, which is quite steep down to the notch. Only a few 10 meters separate us from the top, but it's quite broken. Over nice slabs I reach the shaggy edge, then a bit tricky step to the next rock, then just the straddling part which I bypass lower above the bushes, then really broken little ridge on the south side to the top. On top there's really almost no space. I descend very carefully to the notch, then along the level to the grassy ramp that nicely brings me to the backpack, more in the pictures. But this route is undoubtedly easier because it's shorter.
Since a thunderstorm is approaching, I quickly climb to Brinova glava, detour a bit in between. I wanted to go to another summit by the road called Kreda, but it's a huge hard-to-access boulder which I didn't go to because I was in a hurry for the bus. At Koča pri Peričniku a heavy downpour hits me, which soaks me all the way to the bus stop in Dovje, then same story again. No bus  , then I wait for the bus to Jesenice, then train, in the end call a taxi again...
