Hello,
has anyone been to Krasji vrh recently? What's the condition of the road to Zapleč pasture?
Thanks
regards

Not that steep, but still dangerous cuz you have to step from rock into snowfield (or vice versa)... the gap gets bigger every day and snowfield edge can break off... If you have ice axe you go through no problem safely, otherwise risk fatal fall.
Yesterday there was a whole line of hikers studying what to do.
I was outraged when 2 lady hikers said they were told at Aljažev dom the path is passable without winter gear... obviously they haven't been there...
Given mass Triglav tourism (don't kid ourselves... now 80% on Triglav are tourists not hikers mountaineers), my opinion is nothing wrong with putting up 10m fixed rope in this transition time to make it safe for all.

thanks!

Is it possible on skis from the car, is there enough snow for walking in Krma?

The snowfield is quite annoying, that darker part is ice which doesn't melt much during the day. It's good to have at least small 4-point crampons, then it goes without problem.

Start in Kamniška Bistrica and go to Ojstrica, continue over Planjava to Kamniško sedlo. Here you can end the first day, or before night do the ascent to Brana. In the morning continue over Turska gora, Skuta, Dolgi hrbet and Grintovec. Finish over Kokrško sedlo, back to Kamniška Bistrica. The tour can also be multi-day, as there's also the hut at Korošica in between...

Hey stop people for God's sake! Hasn't the accident taught you anything? How quickly innocent forum jokes turn into tragedy. I think that heated forum debate those days before the accident was indirectly at least a bit guilty for what happened. I'm almost sure Dejan wouldn't go exactly to Triglav if we hadn't argued here those days before. Heavy ego and desire to prove did its thing. Also no need for him to push to the top (no one else did), but what when he'd fall among "armchair mountaineers" himself, against whom he had so much to say. We all must think a bit what we write here, forum endures a lot but its influence can be much worse!
Most hypocritical is that those days when it wasn't known how he'll be, all wished him best and nicest, then as soon as clear he'll be ok, jumped on him: Now he's fine, let's get him!
Happened what happened, luckily went through well. Let's pull something from this and behave nicer ahead!

Here is the article from Novice. It's in two parts due to large format.

I got it at the Lečnik watch shop in Ljubljana, they are the distributor for Suunto. Contact them.

Over Plazje not much snow, too little for skis, trail is trampled to climbing area and waterfalls. Further I don't know.

Here is some statistics

What kind of cycling do you have in mind? Road or MTB? For MTB this is the site for you: http://mtb-forum.si/phpbb/viewforum.php?f=50

This is one of my favorite tours. Ascent on beautiful mulattiera, descent isn't anything special though, but I like the villages and especially the last part when you ride along Glagno river. Especially in summer it's nice, when water is warm.

thanks

Has anyone been there recently? How does it look?
Thanks!
