OK, if there's a big chance something flies at you, then I get it.
Which is the most comfortable descent, down I wouldn't wanna go in ascent direction?

The most comfortable is to Koritnica, but then you're in another valley! All other descents are long, strenuous and demanding.

Good, I wouldn't descend to Koritnica exactly. I had something closer to the starting point in mind.

When you get to Vevnica, you can go right or left, most go towards Ponca, some towards Mangart (I don't know those). I know towards Ponc, but you need at least 12 hours with fewer breaks. The path is demanding, great ridge, the cables I think are still torn, at certain spots vertical ascent. Some write that the entry to the climbing part is already a problem, when the two of us went there was a cable, now they say more are missing.

if you don't go back the same way, then you're fastest if you just go to MANGART and down the easier variant--2-3 hours to Mangart.
There's also another variant, but it's not worth mentioning, because no one goes down there without a rope (old Kugy path-http://www.mojalbum.com/dejanstasy/strug-greben-ponc-6-10-12).
Ljubitelj gora doesn't talk nonsense, if you don't know what the path to Ponc is like. You need cables only at the descent into the notch and there are new cables now (this year's or last year's). Elsewhere you don't need a rope, because there are good steps, rock super, nothing difficult. If here it's 2-3 climbing grade, then I don't know, then Slovenian route (e.g. Prevčev exit) would have to be 4-5. In reality it's 2, sometimes 3.

If I remember correctly from the forum, garmin already has quite a bit behind him, so I don't expect problems. There really are no vertical ascents outside the via ferrata here.

redbull: Don't mix secured climbing paths with climbing route, because it's not the same. Don't mislead by saying there's nothing difficult  If you want to write your experiences, register a blog. I don't know the current state of the path, because I did this path 2 years ago and in that time many things can change from markings to new cables.

I don't know where you'd need a secured path to Strug, you have it where necessary, in fog it's really difficult for example

On 20.9.2013 we were on Vevnica route: Belopeška jezera - Via della vita - descent towards Mangart. The path is without peculiarities. There were only a few snow remnants right below the Vevnica summit. Caution is needed due to wet terrain.

Has anyone gone to Vevnica from the Belopeška Lakes in recent days and knows the conditions?

There are several paths to Vevnica; when the one from Klanška Lakes is closed, it's nice also from Loška Koritnica. At the junction for Kotovo sedlo I catch up with a group that has the same goal. I go ahead and under Zagače I'm already in the sun, otherwise all the time nicely in the shade and pleasant coolness, which is very important in such hot days, as dehydration and exhaustion are quite common in the mountains this year.
From the bivouac I continue to the top, where I don't stay long, as thunderstorms are forecast for the afternoon, and I also promised the guide that I'd help her install the rope fence, and we met again right there, where one of the trickier spots is. We sort it out, then each goes their own way. Under Zagače I descended the mulattiera, which is really nice in the upper part, a bit less lower down, full praise to the Loški hunters, who have the path to the hunting hut sawn and mowed.

Does anyone know the condition of the path on the ridge traverse Tamar - Srednja Ponca - Vevnica - Kotovo sedlo?
I'm interested in the condition of the safety gear; have the Italians maybe fixed anything? Is a rope team still needed?
Also interested if anyone knows what the snow conditions are like in that period?
Thanks for the answers.

Hello
The descent from Vevnica towards Strug was renovated a few years ago. For the other fixed ropes, no fear they would fix them. It's mostly free climbing. Where you need them, they are new as I wrote for the descent or ascent to Vevnica from the Strug direction.
Good luck

My humble opinion...if you're asking about such a ridge, you surely know what you're getting into?...the only safety gear that's really needed is from the notch to Vevnica (unless you climb directly up...II-III?)..and those were flawless last year...for the rest of the ridge it's nicely walkable-climbable and a rope team was never needed...but I'm curious where you plan to descend from Vevnica?...if it's under V Koncu špica, there's such pathlessness there and no safety gear ever was...if from Kotova špica down, then you abseil and there are anchors...otherwise you fix/make them  ...as for snow, the ridge is surely clear...if any, maybe a patch in the notch between Srednja and Zadnja Ponca?...I'd go right away, but the approach to Srednja Ponca doesn't appeal to me

Cool thanks for the answers. I'm reading some stuff on this topic that scares with belay and Italian pitons that lead to death. Variable weather spoiled my plans anyway. It'll be for later. Just so I know I don't need a rope with me...
Descent plan was over the junction to Kotovo sedlo, I plan to come from Tamar over the ridge to Kotovo sedlo with as little weight on my back, since I plan to continue the route afterwards, that's why I asked about snow...

Better not to go, since from your words I judge it's not very clear to you or it won't be when you're there.
Best is through the whole ridge to Mangart and down to the lakes.

What won't/not be clear to me? You mean orientation? Or that it's simple climbing? I wrote Brezpotje wrong..
