Has anyone been on Kopiščarjeva. I read that all snowfields can be bypassed except one. What about it? Do you need ice axe and crampons or is it more peaceful and you can go carefully without?

Conditions on the path to High Kanin 3.7.2019

From Okrešelj to the saddle there are two snow patches, one before entering the wall, the other lower before climbing towards the wall, both unproblematic with some caution, neither large. Rest of the path to top of Brana dry.

The path to Kamnik Saddle from Okrešelj is completely dry. 2. 12. 2016

Today, 2. 12. 2016 on Planjava. Start at Rinka waterfall, over Kamniško sedlo to Planjava. Up to the saddle completely dry, from saddle to Planjava summit some snow patches, no trouble. Crampons due to thaw stayed in backpack, ice axe was useful.

Sini's recommendation is at least to me (and I think to all normal users here) fully understandable and doesn't need stupid nitpicking on words and phrases. As for misleading... no, there's none in that writing anywhere. But there is in the sentence that path difficulty has no connection with the mountaineer's experience. Luckily most normal users will ignore it again, just like they probably overlook most of the useless smart-assing from those who can't wait for someone (not in the holy circle of chosen ones) to write their own experience and opinion so they can pounce and shit the forum with dumb comments. Not so much the forum, you shit and spit on harmless posts only and exclusively to see your name next to a pile of crap to feel alive and important. But to most normal users you're just pathetic, you get on their nerves badly, most "important" is that to anyone seeking useful info on this forum you offer only a load of unnecessary ballast and teasing. That's about how some post is unnecessary and causes confusion. But your thing that obviously some inexperienced can go on very demanding unmarked pathless terrain... is that normal advice for you, stupid fool? Path difficulty has no connection with the mountaineer's experience. I'm fed up with you, dumb blowhards. No wonder the same names repeat on the forum... with so many users? Who else will post if you spit on everything right away, whether it's spit-worthy or not, just to start another dick-measuring contest.
Now... the administrator... finally someone unimportant whom you can ban for inappropriate behavior. Damn, I'll freak out!
What a fine company you are.

Thanks, KJ.

Does anyone have info about snow on Kremžar path to Kočna? Is the path from Češka koča to Kočna via Kremžar path dry?

Last attempt to return where we should be. Not that I'm really interested because I'm not going up...just for the forum asking for an answer: Has anyone been on Brana in the last days and what are the conditions on the path? Thanks for the answer.

Can I please, on behalf of all users who care even a little about who has the longer one, ask you to move this power and "intelligence" measurement to a special thread and not litter everywhere? Not to mention viharnik!! Doesn't Hribi.net have an administrator? Why is such writing allowed on a forum whose topic is clearly defined? All of you who abuse social networks to impose your faith on others... f**k off in p.m.
And the same goes for all those who allow this. And don't give me shit about freedom of speech and religious expression.
As for the "length" about which you discuss so bitterly... let me summarize if I've understood your bullshit correctly... in winter in the hills, mandatory proper footwear: one foot in a summer boot, the other in winter boot; one foot with crampons, the other not; in the left hand (mandatory left) an ice axe, in the right a hiking pole; besides, it's good to have at least one extra ice axe in the backpack for reserve. For ice axes, they must be the same brand and especially different lengths, to use them alternately depending on the slope or conditions on the path. If something is still unclear, check the Hribi.net forum under "Jebe lud zbunjenog" or any topic; everywhere there are at least two-three pages written about how everyone is right or no one is, or go to a course, or how mileage and experience actually teach you. If everything fails, send a private message to viharnik and ask him; you won't need to go to the hills in winter to kill yourself, you can cut your veins at home behind the screen... and done.

Today I was on Ledinski vrh...some snapshots. Winter gear mandatory (of course) .

Today through Sestopna gully in Križ, then to the saddle and to Ledinski vrh and back via Savinjsko sedlo to Okrešelj. The gully is nicely filled, but high temperatures already noticeable, in my opinion won't be this fun much longer.

Today on Mrzla gora. I also put on crampons at the second notch and cramponed towards the top. Views excellent, I was alone at the top. On descent I met rescuers training. But descent from Okrešelj without crampons is still a real challenge...icy sections that don't allow bypasses...damn.

I agree. Recommend or discourage, I'd rather say nothing to anyone. Without winter gear nowhere, use depends on individual anyway. I used them, some places almost unnecessary, others glad not taken off. Down put on only bare sections. Base quite varied...some places sank over knees, few m higher only teeth in snow, so compact frozen. So...
If going further to Turska Gora, mixed terrain again, snow patches more worked, compacted, crossing such toboggans like pic below without gear very dangerous. Good luck.

Today at Turkish Mountain through žleb. Little snow, just a sample.
