Veliki Draški vrh 2243m

Print
j.5. 01. 2020 13:29:32
Yesterday (Saturday, 04.01.2020). At the sports center a warden stopped me and said the road to Konjščica is closed. So I turned toward the ski lift and drove on the icy road to the parking lot about a kilometer further. From there to the marked path a bit on forest tracks, a bit in the forest just a few hundred meters, where the marked path starts there is a cairn that I remembered.

Above Konjščica the path is icy in places. At the pond I put on crampons, which basically to Studorski preval were not even necessary.

The initial traverse to the ridge was quite southern and trampled, it somewhat reminded me of the first traverse on Mali Triglav. Further conditions were excellent, hard snow without sinking. At the summit around 10 people, two on Ablanca, some on Tosc, a whole crowd on Viševnik. Quite a populated area with excellent views, only the weather somehow wanted to turn sour.

Some hikers decided to descend directly down the southeast slope instead of the ridge. It was very hard, they went carefully and therefore quite slowly. I returned to half the ridge, then turned left down the slope to the path from Studorski preval to Konte. It would have been more comfortable with two ice axes on that descent.

On the transverse path at the cairn I turned toward the car, but darn, on those few hundred meters I drifted way too far to the right. I quickly determined the right direction only after consulting the navigation nasmeh. Mighty are those Pokljuka forests!

J. you watched our group, we watched you descending the slope. velik nasmeh Conditions for SE slope descent were good - fairly hard snow, which softened slightly in places due to the sun. We were slow due to the inexperience of one in our group but steadily gaining mileage. Safety first.

From cable car to Jezerca today 12.1. used microspikes, quite some ice on trail. There changed to full winter gear. Conditions further excellent, continuous hard snow, not icy.

Also: found right glove at Jezerca, probably from yesterday. Please send PM with address to mail it.

Classic loop around Viševnik to Great Draški Peak. Snow up top hard and grippy, down low crusty - super for skiing. Skis down to Jezerca.

Yesterday to Great Draški Peak (via Jezerca and Studorski preval) and back towards Kačji rob and Na kontah again to Studorski preval.
Winter conditions no longer like that, can go without winter gear. Some snow patches on Na kontah but easy to bypass.

Yesterday on VDV. Via planina Konjščica to Jezerca and along eastern side to summit.
Down to saddle between VDV and Tosc and descent to traverse Studorski preval - Vodnikov dom.
Path now of course dry. But strong and cold wind on top.

Going in the afternoon, because I prefer morning farm work first. Start Rudno polje upper path to Jezerca, used ice axe for snowfields crossing. Below Viševnik checked gully, hadn't slid yet but did in 1 good hour on return. Below Studorski preval followed tracks to Great Draški Peak. For such late ascent met no one. Stayed on top some time, then descended arrival direction but not upper path, past planina. Up sinking 10cm, down more.

Maybe someone knows if the road on Pokljuka to the starting point for pl. Konjščica is plowed? I'm also interested in the path to Great Draški Peak. How much snow is left, is the path from Studorski preval along the ridge still snowy? Thanks.

Yesterday on Great Draški Peak. Up from the east, down towards the west. Path from Jezerca is dry, descent to valley between VDV and Tosc anyway a bit your own way, but also dry.
Nice day and great views. And peace during the week nasmeh

On a cloudy and humid day I walked the peaks of Pokljuka: Viševnik, Mali and Great Draški Peak, Ablanca, Viševnik. Nice walk enlivened by alpine flowers in abundance. With some luck caught chamois in the lens. Met lots of people on the whole path, mostly foreigners. More at: https://www.gore-ljudje.si/Kategorije/Novosti/hoja-z-oblaki

From Planina Konjščica, where they no longer make any cheese, we climbed to Studorski preval. Tosc was in fog and we decided for ascent up the western slopes, full of gentians and chamois. No talk of views, as fog was drifting over the Julian Alps. We descended to saddle between Draški peaks and back to Jezerca on unmarked path.

I went on Saturday, path without peculiarities, we two went a bit before the pass to the right into the gully where the usual winter passage is, tracks of predecessors. One can also go via the summer path from the pass, a large part of it is bare. That day and also on Sunday the summit was well visited.

Today to Great Draški Peak from Rudno polje and above Planina Konjščica to Jezerca, then left to Studorski Pass. Up to here I did not need crampons despite the snowy path. At Studorski Pass I put crampons on my boots and ice axe in hand, then cheerfully to the ridge. Along the ridge snow and bare ground alternate all the time, so no problems. At the summit I was alone with magnificent views and wonderful weather. Then descent to Jezerca and from there over Srenjski Pass to Viševnik, which was full of hikers. Only the descent to the ski slope and to the parking lot remained, which was surprisingly very empty today. The path itself without peculiarities, winter gear mandatory.
