Nice zigzagging in the beautiful end of our mountains! Jovan, but those "small" passages you chose quite in your own way! I'm really curious whether you consciously turned from Tičarica right towards Gulcam (instead of up "over Peščenk" to Škrnatarica) via the chamois passage (strong transverse path) or whether you've heard/read somewhere before that someone used it?

Weather conditions often change the course of a tour. Planned was only the ascent to Tičarica, but we also did the ridge to Škrnatarica. Everything is evident from the pictures and comments. 'Over Peščenk' via chamois passage some other time.

No doubt, almost everything is visible and fairly well known to me. Nothing wrong, you went as you went. Just wondered if you intentionally turned right from Tičarica towards Gulcam, because that transverse path (lower, NOT upper!) is rarely used among usual pathless hikers whom your post invites to repeat your tour. Good luck on your (pathless) paths!

Is the link not working only for me? Maybe even better, fewer spoilers.

We chose the passage right under Peščenk towards Gulcam because at the moment of that decision, the weather was completely unsuitable for further ascent. We wanted to descend to the valley. Of course not along the ascent path. This passage is also mentioned in the literature.

We once went from Tičarica left and straight down the whole way (very steep through scree, exposed crossing to a small saddle and again very very steep down on a narrow path). It worked out fine, but not recommended. Regards.

Habjan does briefly mention this passage ... I understand your reasons for using it, macesen1. Thanks for confirming the existence of the lower passage, Volk. Otherwise I apologize if I've "dirtied" the topic too much with my curiosity. Good luck!

Merkur, the apology is in my opinion unnecessary. On the contrary. It's really pleasant to debate different 'paths'.  Regards.
