Description of mountain:
Skuta Glacier is today the largest glacier in Slovenia. Due to its location, it is in good condition and has been slightly expanding according to data from the last six years. It currently spans about 3 hectares. It lies below the walls of Rink and Skuta on the Lednine plateau and is a remnant of the Jezersko Glacier. The main hazard on the glacier is a large crevasse in the upper part that reaches depths of 10 to 12 meters (depending on the winter season). A few smaller crevasses have also formed in the lower part.
