This would be long even in dry conditions. Pictures for the calendar, as Dejan notes. But not for PZS, where they have all mistakes in it. Whole February I have to look at Šite with wrong height 2235m jezen

I was on Viševnik yesterday (12.2.), start from Rudno Polje (or at barracks).
Conditions very easy, snow already very compacted but not frozen. I put on crampons somewhere at the ski slope and think it was a good move. Route well trodden, no orientation issues.
Reached the top before sunrise as first. Almost no wind all the way, but up top almost blew me away.

Yesterday winter-spring Viševnik. Most snow up to Plesišče, then thins out a lot, last part dry. Crampons just went for a ride and stayed in the backpack.

Curious about current conditions on Viševnik? (Snow yes or no)

mavi1228. 05. 2023 08:45:50

I was on Viševnik yesterday and there's practically no snow on the path anymore. There's a little bit on the short ascent before Plesišče (a couple of cm, and you can bypass it). Higher up, the path was dry to the summit.

In these unstable weather conditions, Viševnik is the right choice as we can do the circular path quickly. The day before yesterday the path was wet and slippery, most mud on the ascent to the saddle below Plesišče. We descended via Srenjski preval to the valley, where there's still quite a bit of snow and it offers some winter feel in spring. Flowers delight on all slopes.

Today's Viševnik.

The path is whitened with snow, but reachable without gear, though I'd recommend at least microspikes, I used ice axe and crampons myself. Snow for crampons is too little on most of the path, so the points scrape on rocks.

Despite morning cloudiness, sunny at the summit, on the way back (at 10am) snow already quite soft. Path to Srenjski preval looks trodden.

At the summit it's windblown to hard base, about 20 cm fresh snow.

Stay safe!

Today we had a club trip to Viševnik and mixed in with the crowd on the mountain, as everyone wanted to make the most of the beautiful day. velik nasmeh

Little snow, everyone decides on winter gear themselves, probably microspikes are enough.
It was a warm day surrounded by great views. nasmeh

from Vrha nad Škrbino to Tolmiskega Kuka.

the view of Luknja peč excites me the most

We chose the best possible in this spring-winter. Parked at Rudno polje and already at the car stepped onto skis and ascended via the ski slope to Zlate vode then continued up to the summit ridge of Viševnik, where before the last steep we took off skis due to crusts and hiked to the top on foot. Views excellent. A handful of backcountry skiers and hikers also reached the summit. Returned to the skis and skied the slope on excellent snow. From the flat below Plesišče we went up a bit and among larches in a snow shower skied the slope to Zlate vode. With a few turns and sideslipping the gully was behind us and on very scant snow cover sped to the foot of the ski slope and later through the woods to the car.

On Sunday on Viševnik. Snow all the way from parking to top. Morning frozen, after 10am snow softens. Lots of skiers, hikers from none to proper crampons.

I last visited Viševnik many years ago, so the ascent to it suited me like it hasn't for a long time nasmeh

. It is just short enough to easily fit it into the day's tasks. I was surprised only by the lack of snow cover, especially considering the winter gear I took with me. For the southern approach in current conditions, small crampons fully suffice, anything else is already annoying (on 18.12.2024). This of course applies only until the next snowfalls, so there are no misunderstandings velik nasmeh
