Yesterday nature gifted me another unforgettable day. Quite a few hikers enjoyed it, since the lady cashier in Vrata sent me to the lower parking lot for three and a half euros. The upper one was already occupied, time just before seven. She mentioned she'd be on duty until 3 p.m..
Already after the first steps I noticed legs wouldn't cooperate best today, somehow heavy they were, well, at least the backpack was lighter this time. At the bivouac I was at least twenty minutes later than usual, but slower hikers motivated me, overtook quite a fewvelik nasmeh
Behind bivouac drop wet clothes and continue on the well-known trail. Comfort ends at Škrlatica shoulder, strap on helmet and past quite a few guys descend into Kotel. There leave unnecessary stuff and on the now well-known route almost after fivevelik nasmehvelik nasmeh hours at top of Rokavček. If stick to ideal line, barely exceeds II only at two or three spots. Up top new summit register box with brand new book, enjoy almost whole hour at summit. During ascent noticed two pitons with heavily faded prusiks, probably for winter rappels. Descent back to Kotel and ascent to 'shoulder' went quick, even forgot about legs and continued with fairly light steps toward top of Škrlatica. There only three 'latecomers', snap a few pics of them, descend simultaneously.
Day is long, weather wonderful, so in Zadnji Dolk head toward Dolkova špica, ascent already in shade so much easier. Can't understand how someone could damage otherwise sturdy strong summit box. Do such jerks really go to our mountains?
Descend toward Dovški Gamsovec, soon turn left onto pathless steep scree and still in sun at bivouac. Change to dry clothes again and hike alone into valley in cold shade.
Since super visibility all day, didn't give camera much rest.

Nice, Tone. Don't say 5 hours is already too much for Rokavček?nasmeh
I was already thinking yesterday what lucky guys those are who could be in the mountains today and yesterday.
There'll still be something left for us too. Hope so.nasmeh

Thanks, Majda and Boštjan! I realized that the best recipe for recognizing a mountain is multiple visits from all possible approaches, so it slowly 'grows on you'.
Dejan, I think a stronger hiker with proper tools could fix the box on the spot.

bo_zl5. 09. 2019 20:33:28
I think the box can't be fixed. Maybe straighten it, yes. But it's not fixed anywhere. And no big deal if some idiot throws it somewhere. I was already shocked that at IV. there's no more pole with signpost. The signs are just on the ground. I assume the same moron at work on signpost and box.

As the number of visitors to our beautiful mountains rises every year, the culture of behavior drops proportionally, not to speak of the honor code of Slovenian mountaineers, for most it's something to spread on bread. rolling eyes

On Saturday (21.9.2019) in super conditions to Lower Rokav from Kotel. Ascent to Lower Rokav with proper approach choice isn't particularly demanding, but orientation can pose certain problems. However due to crumbly terrain and exposed slopes and scree, caution is needed at every step.
For future ascenders I provide my view of the ascent route in pictures.
Škrlatica, Kotel and today's goal - Spodnji Rokav1
Illustration of the ascent towards the summit of Spodnji Rokav (circled is the rocky ridge which we must bypass from above across the exposed ledge)2
View from the shoulder below the summit of Škrlatica to the initial section of the ascent to Spodnji Rokav from Kotel3
Even closer4
Start of the ascent to Spodnji Rokav - photographed from Kotel5
Continuation - view towards Triglav6
When approaching the prominent rocky ridge, we turn left uphill, climb approx. 50 m and bypass the rocky ridge from above via the exposed ledge7
View from the mentioned ledge onto the continuation8
View back to the mentioned ledge9
Crossing the crumbly slope and smaller gullies further on10
11
When we spot this square rock and approach the edge overlooking Jezera (bivak II), we turn left and continue up the wide summit slope12
13
A little below the summit we cross the edge to the north-eastern side and, via a short traverse of a somewhat exposed slope, turn left up into the rear wide gully towards the top14
An anchor point is available for belaying this section15
View back to the crossing over the edge to the north-eastern side16
Already at the top of the gully just below the summit17
Just one minute from the top of the gully to the summit box18
