Hi, the path between Pogačnikov dom and Zasavska koča on Prehodavcih, i.e. through Luknja and under Kanjavec is still quite snowy and therefore impassable without winter gear!!! (ice axe,crampons) I work at Zasavska koča, so I can tell you firsthand that it will be quite dangerous there for a longer time. I myself plan to pop over to the neighbors, but will have to wait another month or less until it's snow-free. Lepo Špičje is almost snow-free :-) Dolina 7 too, Kanjavec can also be nicely reached... :-) Oh, welcome to Zasavska koča

There's a bad forecast on Saturday and I don't know why one would rush to the mountains then?!

Zasavska hut at Prehodavci opens on Thursday, 25. 6. 2009.

Hi, with my boyfriend we were on Saturday, 13.6 on Triglav. We went from Krma. To Kredarica there is still snow in some areas (on the way back we slid nicely and gained more than an hour). From Kredarica - entry to the wall is really still snowed, there we also used ice axes, further the path is dry so we didn't need crampons. It was a nice day, not many people at the top, but there will be more in the future. From this side (Krma-Kredarica-summit) the path is technically not demanding and soon there will be no more snow. But there is still quite a lot of snow from the north side.
Best,
Silva

Thanks, triglavski. I agree, the snow is firm, which can be a big hazard. Crampons in the backpack, it will be! And that even longer into summer :-)

Hi, I'm also interested, what's the path Kredarica-Triglav like? Are crampons needed, or could it be done with just an ice axe? To Kredarica is probably mostly dry.

Planning to go to the top with my boyfriend this Saturday.

Thanks, best regards from Maribor.
