Storžič

Quick decision. This afternoon through Žrelo to Storžič. Weather slightly threatening, so quick pace to the top. Fixed ropes in good condition. Views very varied. At the top at three, clouds gathering and first raindrops. No time for a snack, just over Škarja ridge to the valley. Round trip in three hours. Satisfied at home despite not great weather.
CALM AND PEACEFUL1

Today a wonderful day for Storžič. Since it's our first visit to the summit we choose the easier, though longer path from village Povlje. We took a short break at Krničarjeva hut on Javornik pasture, as the path steeply climbs from the very beginning. From the hut into the gully, narrow at first, later widens offering wonderful views of this part of Storžič slope. Steepness doesn't ease up, but wonderful views make you forget it. On the ridge superb vistas open, just a few minutes to the top. Cloudless sky offered great views of Julian Alps, entire Košuta ridge far below, Gorenjska lowland spreading out. On return instead of back to Javornik we turn to Velika Poljana. Path much friendlier than gully, wonderful hut on Velika Poljana pasture and back to start. Nice loop if you have whole day.

This time to Storžič a bit differently. In a beautiful Sunday morning I went to the hut at Kališče then traversed the south slope of Storžič to Velika Poljana and then over "Psica" to the summit.nasmeh On the return I also jumped to Bašeljski vrh and descended to Mače. A bit windy, Storžič got its cap around 10 o'clock. Hikers conquered the summit from all possible paths.
The summit is already sunny1

Storžič this time from the Tržič side. Parked at the hut under Storžič and dashed up through Žrelo. Weather wasn't great but it held. The path is quite steep but interesting - especially the views. North wind blowing throughout, but it gained strength only on the ridge. To the summit over the shoulder shat on by sheepmrk pogled, then down Škarjev rob. Nice loop tour, but unfortunately I didn't see the junction to the bivouac??

For those who find the scree over Škarjev rob too much, I suggest return over the Psica ridge. If you come through Žrelo, from the summit back to the junction on the ridge where you peeked out and go straight. The path is marked, scenic and airy, a bit of scrambling on ridgelets up, down and around. If you have done Žrelo, this won't be a problem. But it does add some elevation meters, so not the best for those who had enough at the top. Recommended.

Path to Storžič via Žrelo is interesting and varied. Unfortunately today no great views as fog accompanied us all the time. At the top many hikers mainly from Kališče direction. Back we went via Škarjev rob and Javorniški preval to the start. At Dom pod Storžičem proper refreshment.

Had excellent companion @rozko who lately more into off-trail (does PP too apparently) and this suited her well, at least she confirmed. Hope so. Had great time; like old times!!

You also have to scramble a bit on the ridge8
The summit full of hikers. She wanted to stay right in front of the summit.9
Beautiful undulating ridge. Walking on it is pure pleasure.10
There are loads of them everywhere. Just like everywhere else.11

At Javorniški preval. This part of the path is not as easy as one might think.13

Today after a long time back on Storžič. This time we chose Dom pod Storžičem as starting point. Continued on the path through Žrelo to the top. Slipperiness in Žrelo quite significant, caution needed. Quite a few of us on top, but we didn't linger much there due to wind. With wife descended through Škarjev rob, where rain caught us, accompanying us to the trailhead. This path also great, of course even better if dry. Recommended. Lp J&S

Yesterday to Storžič through Žrelo. At the beginning it was a bit slippery after the night rain, higher up the rocks were already dry. Lots of visitors on the top also due to holy mass. I descended over Škarjev rob towards Dom pod Storžičem where hot sun accompanied me. Nice tourvelik nasmeh

February winter one, three weeks ago summer one also from Mač, yesterday yet another wonderful velik nasmeh circular. The friend is to 'blame' who threw me the bone, I didn't need to say it twice... I was already looking forward to it.

From Mač we started just before six. Uffff, not only the days, the mornings are warm too, if the step is fast they become too hot too quickly. At 8.30 we stood on the top for the first time. Descent over Škarjev Rob to Dom pod Storžičem, back through Žrelo. After good 6 and a half hours we stood on the top for the second time nasmeh. It was so very hot zavijanje z očmi that I thought if one really needs to get used to hell, but the feelings were divine anyway. And the beer at Kališče well deserved mežikanje.

There were not many visitors, maybe we met 10 on the whole path who were sweating according to the temperature. Almost 6l of liquid went down my throat, and more would have, otherwise the whole path except the heat had no special features. The one a week ago to Kokrško Kočno and over Jezerska to Grintovec was nice, this one to Storžič unrepeatable, though... maybe sometime again cool.

Ps. I have to admit that the photos this time are nothing special, so I won't spoil the average here (they remain only as evidence).

Yesterday to the top from the village Laško via Kališče. Path to the hut in the shade then hot, hot. So the beer at Kališče on the return was even better, plus excellent cottage cheese strudels.
