The north face is wintry. Yesterday from the Dom along the ridge above the avalanche and on the hard crust to 1250 m to the path. Deep tracks deeply frozen. A well-equipped mountaineer went to probe the gully. Range Rover.

lijaneja - does it give way anywhere? Probably unnecessary question whether crampons and ice axe are needed, or not?

Today I was on Storžič, the path from Bašelj is snow-free, from Kališče also snow-free.

From Laški along SW ridge to Storžič, return over Psica. As I didn't think to descend all the way to Velika Poljana, at a suitable spot I turned left off the path through the forest and steep grassy slopes to the shepherd hut on Javornik. There left onto the marked path, but left it after a minute. Thus diagonally through the forest arriving quite low on the morning ascent path, which I extended a bit past the church of St. Lovrenc.
Path normally passable, only at the start of descent a couple of frozen snow patches - but exposed on that section.

On Monday up from Mač via Kališče and down the hunting path then marked to Bašelj. No winter gear used, but those from Žrelo had it.
On approach little snow, avg around 2cm, no issues. Snow on path starts somehow after Bašelj pass.
But on west side on descent much more snow. Gaiters sensible. There were also crampon tracks. Due to the path itself more caution needed, especially lower where rocks end and ground is wet.

Stasa123, very cold today up there (Kredarica pm -12°C) and cold in coming days too (plus strong wind), so snow, even if little fallen, will freeze.

Hi. Has anyone gone in the last few days since it snowed on the SW path-from Povelj through the gully? Interested in conditions on the path-is it icy? Thanks.

Tomorrow I plan to go to Storžič; Up through Žrelo and return via Škarjev rob. Conditions have changed dramatically from Thursday to today: On Thursday I saw it completely snow-covered like in adnap's picture, today (Friday) snow has mostly gone and there's almost none, only small snow patches visible, can't wait for tomorrow

Still snow on the north side. Žrelo has never been completely snow-free in April. Don't trust south-side pictures of Storžič. 
And my assessment isn't from the couch but from experience.

Today I viewed the snowy north side of Storžič from Košuta ridge. Škarjev rob still quite under snow. Hike wisely and good luck.

Correction: Žrelo has some snow patches where ice axe essential, don't climb Žrelo without ice axe and helmet! Škarjev rob still very snowy and impassable now. Upper part very steep snowfield with wet snow where ice axe little help, cables deep under snow, so don't count on descent/ascent via Škarjev rob now. Better return to Dom pod Storžičem longer way over Bašeljski preval and Javorniško sedlo, descent through Žrelo not recommended per my assessment.
