With dad and brother Tim we head to Krma. Foggy and cloudy weather greets us, but full of energy we start the trail anyway. The marked forest path takes us to Zgornje Krme pasture, where at the junction we turn right to Staničev dom. At the next junction we turn left to Kredarica. This way we bypassed Konjski preval, which will be the descent route. From Krma to Kredarica the path is well marked, directions at junctions clearly stated. No climbing here either, as there's not even one peg or cable all the way to Kredarica. Water is plentiful in pasture troughs. At Kredarica strong wind and fog await us. We won't wait for better weather, as it's been like this since early morning. Climbing to Mali Triglav we meet some English guys turning back due to strong wind on the ridge. And indeed we soon feel their reasons for descent. Wind accompanies us all the way to the top, where it calms. Pegs and cables on the path are impeccable, but watch the smoothed rocks that sometimes give no grip to boots. From the top we descend to Triglavska škrbina and turn to Dom Planika. Here it blows even stronger but safety aids are in exemplary condition throughout. Rock is also noticeably less smoothed, as most "attack" the summit from Kredarica. After short but extremely pleasant crawling on iron and rocks we arrive below Rjavec, from where to Planika is a short walk on scree and snowfields (ice axe and crampons not needed - flat). All climbing parts are behind us and we decide to run to Krma. Path leads through Konjski preval to the valley. Path is excellently marked all the way and even in fog with little attention we won't stray. We finish success with delicious pizza washed down with bitter beer.-Perfect day!!!

From Krma need to carry skis approx 80 min towards Kredarica. In between need to take them off three more times.
Weather excellent also for solo ascent to Triglav, which is no longer so demanding. Return in ascent direction to Krma.
