interesting write-up about an event while climbing on Spik... So we can "chew on it" a bit

http://www.aocrnuce.si/galerija_single.php?id=884

..Hope the author of the write-up won't mind that I posted the link up here..

you forgot about kayak and canoe #sampovem But you can complete the topic with all entry points for SUPs on all lakes of the world- That also connects us

jcerni; You're right! Of course I also find a mountain connection in Colombia and cocaine production.. Well, you have to go to the mountains, walk a bit, pick native crops, socialize with locals so they trust you with their grandmas' recipes and take the wildest paths so that in the end at the port you catch the cruise ship Oceania Regatta which connects mountain folk and seafarers and cocaine and morphine not to mention the waiter from Nepal... omg...

of course, of course we remember, maybe "lino" will know to write more #jcerni could also share an article about the maiden flight of the new Airbus A350F plane so that besides the sea the sky will also be represented

andi2 – whether it's interesting to you from a mountaineering perspective or not has no connection with economic logic, which could easily swallow up another hut under Triglav. I've also been avoiding this area for over 10 years, but it's clear to me that it will always be some kind of centre of our alpine tourism. I'm not advocating new huts, but I'm sorry that politics won at the Italian station. Lojze just finished the job and turned off the light. ..and I agree with the others. It's downright incredible how Lojz brought this to its current state. Absolutely everyone stuck their heads in the sand like an ostrich. Fej....

https://www.dnevnik.si/novice/lokalno/sekunde-groze-na-vrsicu-zapornica-se-ni-odprla-kolesarja-je-vrglo-na-skale-2825821/ The fiasco is even bigger than if we wished a little bad luck.. 3 accidents and probably more will happen, not to mention that nobody respects whether they have a parking ticket or not... The municipality says that the system still has some shortcomings https://www.rtvslo.si/zabava-in-slog/ture-avanture/novi-prometni-rezim-na-vrsicu-ima-se-nekaj-pomanjkljivosti/792937

Stew with meat according to PZS https://pzs.si/koce/ max 10eur- maybe they had an offer somewhere that they didn't advertise but if you said the secret password (that no one knows) you would also get something for 10 eur about the rest of the offer it's pointless to talk (robbery) ..but in the end this outweighs it- "experience with son is priceless"! To as many such experiences. Lp

The path over Škarjev rob is not a precipice, the last part (half an hour?) is a bit more rocky and uncomfortable - maybe some deeper view, that's it. In theory you can return down the SW gully to Javornik pasture and then past V. and M. poljana back to the hut under Storžič, which makes sense if you want to round off the tour or if during the ascent you actually realize that you don't want to go down there. The path itself through the gully is not that pleasant either, but of course it's a bit more secure than Škarjev rob. SVK is not needed here, and I think a helmet is not needed either - let's leave the theory now, realistically no.

...the point is how much money they will demand for the reservation. If it was free I wouldn't say anything, but when the article praises Vintgar, Tolmin Gorges and similar spots so much it seems to me the system will just be an upgrade of the current state to rip you off as much as possible when visiting TNP. For one-time guests not so painful as for us "who live a bit outside the biosphere area of TNP" additional hints are that this wouldn't apply only to TNP but also more broadly. And at the end a bitter praise for the media approach - the same article appeared today in various unrelated media, which proves the planned preparation of people for restrictions. Platitudes that they are only thinking I don't buy. Probably already decided. And to get back to the beginning. Let them "have the balls" and introduce restrictions as free only with a reservation system, if they care so much. But what when in between we read again .. "guests with higher added value" - I know who that is?! right?

This system is doomed to fail. Already in theory it's on very shaky legs, in practice it will be a flop. All these educated heads don't understand the psychology of the masses. It's impossible that at the very start everyone will correctly line up at the ramps and turning and reversing here and there and puzzled looks and despair. And in the end we users will be to blame because we don't understand how they imagined it and again we'll be irresponsible because we don't follow the instructions and don't use the bus and all their platitudes they serve us daily. Because the main purpose of everything is probably to collect money, maybe it would be better if instead of from ****** they build a chapel they put up that sign that has already embittered our lives -easy park and strengthen the wardens on the pass and that's it .. You don't need to be a rocket scientist. The passage over the pass will be smooth those 80 spots at the top let them shove them somewhere and fleece the tourists... -horror where we've come to ..

Far from wanting to trigger a new wave of commenting but actually do they really sell canned beer for 7.5 eur in the huts around Triglav? Haven't shown up there for quite a few years, and it looks like I won't for a long time (never again?)..

A little in defense of all pro and amateur weather forecasters. I read a little about it because I like to follow weather phenomena since I was little. The fact is that our beloved homeland lies geographically in an area where so many variables have to be included in the forecasting models that "there is no god who would know how to put it in". I remember an interview a few years ago, I think it was Gregorčič, when he explained about winter forecasts how a degree of deviation in the forecast (and how easily it can happen) can change the forecast of snow in the lowlands into rain even in the Ljubljana basin, and the reasons why it is difficult to promise concrete forecasts here for more than 5 days. Something similar also happened yesterday and today. #bojan I have a similar experience with a long-deceased neighbor. When I was about 10 years old, he was already around 80. For his/our micro-location, he only looked at two corners in the surroundings and he knew everything about the weather for a day or two. Of course, these experiences of old wise men are tied only to those few square kilometers around their home. To somehow conclude. I also curse them from time to time but realistically speaking I think they try their best and are experts in their field.

#vitan "tourist rabble" is, to put it mildly, a very rude expression. After all, we are all tourists (locals and foreigners) when we go on a trip, and parking behind the house also doesn't set any example for the uneducated. The visitors are not the problem, but rather the local and state authorities who don't know how to manage the flow of people they so diligently invite to see our beautiful country. Instead of some sensible measures, we have a collapse of the system and shearing (us sheep)..

@Trobec- written one page back "Even free buses become payable after a season or two " and the same will happen with Vršič and other future "free" buses, with the fact that they will also rip you off with parking at the entry station..

Pero 24, well here it's not just about Vršič. The whole alpine world is being shaped/prepared to the measures of a tourist who is on vacation and has different needs than you and all of us who read this and like going to the hills either during the week or on weekends. There will be even more barriers, Krma, Kot, also for Pokljuka it's not said they won't start counting cars (in other words entrance fee ) and there are other starting points they will close (charge) for access... All under the pretext of ensuring safety and calming traffic. I've been yelling about this here for 10 years already. Traffic can also be calmed without us paying heavily for it. Also free buses become paid after a season or two But that just doesn't work in our beautiful little country... quantum physics for municipal officials or just greed (choose the answer yourself)

I think it's only talking about the top of the pass currently. According to peasant wisdom (which is otherwise lost here) it would be possible to park at the other marked parking lots. But it's an epic excuse after this "lame" winter
I quote; "The delay in the execution of works occurred due to two key factors, namely the long winter season practically directly transitioned into the summer period, which prevented the contractor from completing the construction of parking arrangements within the planned deadline, and the continuation of construction works on the ground is strongly hindered and limited by the constantly present illegal parking of vehicles in the area of the pass, which causes additional delays in execution." End of quote. Butalci would have written a better excuse ..
