Currently on Corsica,
of course went to the mountains, which incidentally are very beautiful and have excellent rock. Well, price of beer 2.5 dcl is 5€, sweet drink in can 2.5 dcl 3€. Hut accessibility like ours, meaning supply by mule or helicopter. Let me say 2.5 dcl beer costs in shop 2.5€. Math tells all. With us beer in shop 1.3€ (0.5l) in hut 6€... not to mention food...
I agree with predecessors, hut should be shelter and lodging, if additionally offers 2-4 dishes it's added value of course at reasonable price! Huts mustn't become inns with lodging as some in PD and PZS think... that's far from values first builders and volunteers had in mind.

My opinion is that rents from PDs are too high...huts were built by volunteers in the past and materials donated by various companies. Now after so many years when huts' lifespan expires and big investments are needed, they charge very high rents...with money collected over years, even though some goes to regular hut maintenance some remains...where that money remains only PD leadership knows. And on top huts are becoming hotels, especially newer ones...which is NOT the basic purpose of mountain huts, which PZS also forgets. Huts were basically meant for providing basic overnight stays during longer tours and basic food offer...
I think PZS lost compass long ago... That Kredarica is already reserved in first 3 months of year for off-season is absurd for me, I'm a person who goes to mountains with love for rock and nature, who looks at weather and conditions not time...
Real hikers should stand together and tell PZS leadership where to lead direction of mountaineering and hiking here and not individuals who lost the feeling...
GOOD LUCK AND SAFE IN THE MOUNTAINS!

Hello,

Yesterday I went from Vršič to Prisojnik via the ridge path. Crampons and ice axe mandatory gear. Up to where the grass ends the snow was dry and it went without crampons. From the lower window onwards the ridge is partly frozen, snowy and rocky, so be careful. Weather was gorgeous and just cold enough. Some pics below

Hello
Looking for company to the mountains. Would anyone join tomorrow 29.11.23 plan to go from Zadnjica or Vrata to Stenar or Gamsovec. Lp
