wow, I knew it was someone who's no lightweightnasmeh
We followed you with our eyes almost to the top, pity my camera failed already at the parking lot, otherwise you'd surely be on the photos.
Great that you showed upnasmeh

While I was browsing these pages a bit, I noticed that some of you went past a small pond (bagi, Franci, Majda), but I don't know where to find it. Well, now it's probably snowed over, but still. Thanks in advance!

The small pond is a bit below the summit, but it was dry before the last precipitations.

Yesterday visited the lesser-known peak in the Krma valley, Veliki Pršivec. The summit itself offers wonderful views of surrounding peaks. The path itself without features. At the junction where we leave the marked path to Staničev dom (approx. at 2000 m) there is a cairn. From the junction we go through indistinct valley to the cairn which directs us right to Veliki Pršivec (cairns show the path to the summit well traceable). On the path from junction there are still some snow patches which can be crossed, or we can bypass them. Nice regards.

I've mostly read the comments for Veliki Pršivec, but let me ask once more, are the cairns still in place? I guess you need to be quite careful, the path branches off at the Rjavina junction over Teme to the right, where there are no markers afterwards. We'd like to climb to the real summit. Can someone add what else to watch out for so we don't miss it. Thanksnasmeh

On 12.10 I visited this beautiful peak. From the junction off the marked path, there are more than enough cairns. In autumn colors and its solitude, the path is pure enjoyment...

Very nice. Wonderful views. We searched for the summit last year but didn't find it. Need to repeat. nasmeh

Yesterday (Thursday, February 18th). On skis from Kurja vas along Krma and through Travna dolina past Mali Pršivec and further along the ridge to Veliki Pršivec.

Had to park in Kurja vas, from where deceptive tractor tracks led just a few hundred meters and then ended without a turning area. A fairly frozen track, also a ski track at the same time, led past Lese and to the forest, where snow off the path also became compact. Similar conditions continued towards Vrtača, just that on the solid snow base mostly from old avalanche debris every meter of elevation had a bit more unbonded, dry snow. But the relatively shallow track on the otherwise thick snow cover reliably offered excellent conditions also for walking without skis. At Malo polje we turned right past the abandoned shepherd's hut, which is covered with snow up to the ridge (unless it collapsed since autumn when I was last there). Then straight up past the old signpost and further up the slope to quota 2020 from where we continued through the holey terrain to the summit of Veliki Pršivec.

Back we went via Kravja dolina and approximately along the path that goes over Apnenica to Prgarca. Before Prgarca we even missed a bit once because we followed an old track whose author turned back above the steep slope above Travna dolina. So we did toovelik nasmeh.

Around Pršivec at 2000m the snow is crusty, wind-packed, on the very summit there's a huge cornice. Lower down the south-facing slopes were dry in the morning and covered with a thin crust, in the afternoon they became completely refrozen. Above Prgarca, where evening shade caught us, the snow instantly became desperately crusty, skiing was demanding. Below Prgarca in shaded spots there was enough dry snow for satisfying skiing, even better on the forested slopes above Vrtača. And further on avalanche debris from Vrtača to the forest there was enough dry snow on the eroded slope for carefree turns. In the forest the snow was compact but skiable. From the forest edge and along the valley bottom past Lese and Kovinarska koča to Kurja vas we sped along the excellently frozen track / ski trail to Kurja vas (about 7 or 8 km) in a good half hour. Never so fast!

Weather was splendid, freezing cold in the valley, but on sun-exposed spots we even sweated. Towards Kredarica there was a track and ski touring trail, one was made even over Bohinjska vrata. No new avalanches, just once I heard a rock flying over the south ridge of Rž. With warming in the coming days it will probably rumble again. Views from the summit fantastic, didn't meet a soul.

Thanks, Majda!

But I forgot to mention: already at night we drove through the very dear-to-me Mojstrana. The small ski slope at the end of the village was brightly lit and operating. Queue for the lift, lots of skiers zigzagging down the slope, mostly kids and youth. I stopped the car. With Dolgostebelni we watched silently for several minutes and enjoyed the bustle and skiing tradition that people in these parts obviously remain faithfully attached to despite poor winters and other obstacles.

The icing on the cake of a wonderful day!

After almost three years we set off again to Veliki Pršivec. This time we were successful and found the summit without issues.
Both parking lots in Krma were fully occupied on Saturday, 11.9.2021. Expected, as the forecast was nice.
Ascent via Prgarca, descent via Travna dolina. Initially many hikers, all heading to Triglav, but towards Staničeva koča it was as if cut off. We enjoyed the solitude and sunshine. nasmeh
The junction to the unmarked path is clearly visible, the little trail through Kravja dolina is nicely traceable.
The summit is a wonderful vantage point. Nobody anywhere. Peace and buzzing bees.
Upon return to the marked path we continued to Staničeva koča, which was already closing on Sunday, 12.9.
Safe travels to all. nasmeh
