I'm already a volunteer velik nasmeh

. But what, since it won't be the first anymore this weekend...... jezen

NO, THIS IS NOT AN APRIL FOOL'S JOKE!
THIS WEEKEND IT SHOULD BE NICE WITH TEMPERATURES UP TO 20 DEGREES CELSIUS.

I think there's no joking. Avalanche danger will be due to soaked terrain and fresh snow according to forecasts VERY HIGH.
Check well before. High temperatures are not always a condition for good conditions. If you go anyway, good luck!

UROS11. 04. 2009 10:03:23

Yes, definitely! On Friday evening I'll call Kredarica and if I get the green light I'll go, otherwise of course not.

This winter I've already been to Triglav 3 times.
If avalanche danger is even higher, we'll of course stay home and wait for better conditions.

From Kredarica I got the green light this morning for tomorrow's ascent from Krma to the top of Triglav.

Would anyone else go? Anyone get in touch?
yes, of course my GSM 070 841 816

Best regards, Uroš

Are you going on foot or will you take skis with you?

UROS14. 04. 2009 15:36:02

ON FOOT, AS ALWAYS - THIS WINTER ALREADY THE THIRD TIME.

... I don't know, don't know... I'm tempted but tomorrow not exactly super nice forecast. Possible snow slabs, and quickly you're sure to the wet snow slab mrk pogled

This Sunday 05.04.2009 my colleague Ivan and I visited Kredarica, we also tried ascent to Triglav summit, but ascent from half of Mali Triglav impossible - not trodden, pitons still under snow.
Later we learned no one was up there this weekend.
On descent to Krma valley we could observe snow avalanches (avalanche danger was 2nd degree), only smaller ones released.
Otherwise pictures will tell more!

Best, Uroš

I also headed to Kredarica today. Road drivable only about 1.5 km, then have to go on foot the whole valley or me on skis. In the morning it was all frozen, but only to Pastirski hut, further the sun has done its job. Track poorly made, quite a bit off the marked path too, of course with high temps it sinks appropriately. To the summit due to warm weather I didn't even count, too unstable up there. Skiing of course wasn't anything special, but nice anyway.

Mali Triglav and the ledge reached by Uroš and Ivan

UROŠ1, how long did it take you two to hike to Kredarica? Does it sink a lot? Do you think it would be possible this weekend to go up, of course if conditions are ok.

Thanks for the reply. LP

Me too, tempted this weekend... just afraid that for this year it's over

UROS18. 04. 2009 10:05:24

We hiked from 6.30 to 12.00, that is approx. 5.30 hrs.
Yes, in case of nice weather it would be possible this weekend too, although the forecast is not the best, call the keepers at Kredarica before.

Thanks UROS1

I was on the top yesterday. In the morning, before ca 10 o'clock it's frozen and goes fine, later it softens and it's less pleasant (sinking, balls form on crampons).
