Madonca, I haven't been to Triglav yet this year I say to myself and drive to Trenta. Conditions are more or less known to me, this time the "highway" from Krma (supposedly impassable yesterday), and the one further to the summit doesn't interest me.
For the old Kugyjevo, which seems to me incidentally the most beautiful path to Triglav, there's still too little snow, so I turn up into Komar. Of course already under the "sign" I put on crampons. The gully with the boulder is nicely filled, snow packed. Whoever doesn't know the summer path shouldn't attempt such a feat. Sometimes I use fixed cables, sometimes wade to knees. Transitions from gully to gully require some concentration. Higher up I reach a wide snowfield. I go straight up and left along the rocks. My phone rings in the backpack, I know it's her, so I answer, otherwise I wouldn't. Snow holds excellently, soon I'm on the mulatiera. But where the heck is it?
Along "it" I go just a few 100 meters, then turn to winter passages, and right under Z wall of Kanjavec and straight up to Dolič. Wind from west, so I go to shelter behind the hut, drink something, then up to the plateau where the new hut should stand. Traverse left and there I see it, proudly standing above ZTP. Some places windblown to ice (in December rain fell very high), prefer walking on hard crust. Soon under the "wall". First part almost vertical, gully under Bovška škrbina nicely filled. Pleasure to walk on such snow. Soon spot Planika, sun, no wind, warm. On Mali Triglav spot two. So it wasn't that bad from Krma as they wrote yesterday. I dash to the summit. View as I'm used to for years. Sit until those two reach the top, takes them quite a while.
Wondering who they could be. I know most of the "real" ones, we meet up there for years. Meanwhile she calls, wishes safe descent.
Those two walk slowly, stop every few meters, foreign language. Finally they arrive, one is Zoltan, don't know the other's name, Hungarians, supposedly came from Krma yesterday, slept at Kredarica. What were they doing until 12:00!? When it's just a good hour up or less for fast ones.
Soon I say goodbye, down goes much easier though carefully. When I'm already far below on the slopes, AB 412 roars around Triglav, weather guys changing. Go down towards Dolič. For Miha I photo the location of the new hut. At old Dolič, short break again, drink, then back down via Komar. Descent is always annoying, even dry, more in snow. But no problem for me. In Zadnjica I stop by Vinko and Justi, they're alone there in winter, rarely go to Bovec, but it's so nice there, they seem happy to me.
Rarely possible in February from Trenta to Triglav, this time gorgeous, ideal conditions , and great company too.
