On the path to Presedljaj a couple of short snow tongues, passable without issues. Ridge to Konj dry, as is descent via Dol to Kamniška Bistrica.

CONGRATULATIONS to all who succeeded yesterday to conquer the peak and had luck that they weren't blown off the ridge. We decided on Kredarica due to strong wind gusts not to go up. Otherwise access to Kredarica super. Road plowed to the ramp.

Viševnik today conquered completely without problems. Crampons stayed in the backpack. Path well trodden. Further towards Draški vrh, but according to the story of the mountaineer who came from there, for now due to abundance of drifted snow the ascent is heavily impeded. So that our plan to do a circular via planina Konjščica went down the drain...

On Sunday 28.9.2014 fantastic conditions for ascent to Piz Boe summit 3152m. Sun and fantastic views richly rewarded our good four drives from Ljubljana to Passo Pordoi saddle from where we started. Since the summit is easily accessible as it can be shortened a lot by gondola to 2848m height it was accordingly well visited.

Swen11. Well done very nice photos. If I remember correctly, I overtook you before entering the wall, when you were waiting for the prettier part of your team. On top at 10 o'clock.

From Jezersko via Slovenian route to Ledine then via climbing path to Velika Baba and descent to valley via ridge over Jenkova planina was my yesterday's tour. Protections in perfect condition...no problems on ridge...descent from ridge to Jenkova planina on scree not very pleasant....Views from top fantastic

Today we went via Hanz's to Mala Mojstrovka. If we subtract the fog and wind on top, conditions are good. At the entry to the wall, you need to squeeze a bit between snow and rock, then it goes.... No more snow onwards.

Three weeks ago there were still those small snow patches that could be bypassed without issues. Crampons weren't needed even then.

Thanks jax... such info is very welcome for this forum....

Bravo Matevž....because we share the beauties of the mountains with you too..keep it up..HAPPY 2014.

Everyone heading to Komna these days, the path is well trodden. Snow starts in a thin layer somewhere from the 20th serpentine and thickens to 70-80cm height by the hut at Komna. In the initial part the path is already slightly icy, so crampons would be quite welcome for safer steps....

Yesterday we were among a ton of hikers on Triglav too. We did the same route as strikan and his group.... We met part of the group that's in pic 16 several times during the day.... despite the crowds and the dance of clouds around Triglav we had a nice day and safely returned to the valley.

Congrats to you mukica and your group. I like the facebook comment...."at ferrata entrance you buy ticket for whole ferrata"....further you need only will, enough fitness and clear head for deep valley views... Good luck all.

Finally - Kokrško sedlo - Kal Ridge - Koren - Zvoh - Krvavec - Kriška planina.

Yesterday I met only one hiker on this trail who was already returning from Kal Ridge. Views of the Kamnik Alps were beautiful... but the Julian Alps were hidden behind mists. The trail is perfectly secured on protected sections. At the top of Kal Ridge I met my namesake Meta and we headed together towards Krvavec... safe to all
