Slovenia: Backcountry Skiing - Bivouac under Storžič


Peto žrelo is a steep ravine in Storžič. Badžo and me decided to ski in it, so we started ascending to Storžič through Kramarjeva ravina. Half way up, where the bivouac is, we decided, that the conditions are too dangerous to continue, so we turned around, so we will do that skiing next time. 

Our way should be up, but we turned around at this point.

View to Košuta mountain ridge.

After a while, we were able to put our skis on.

From this point, we skied down.

First turn and Badžo was in the snow. It took him a while to get up.

Entrance into the Kramarjeva ravine. We'll finish it later.

Slovenia: From Podljubelj over Smokuški vrh to Begunje


I left my home office this Friday a little early and with Bronco we went hiking. First we arrived to Koča na planini Prevala mountain hut and then we just continued to mountain pasture Planina Planica. We still didn't have enough so we prolonged our trip over Poljška planina to a peak Smokuški vrh. From there we descended over Sankaška koča hut to Begunje na Gorenjskem - Garmin Connect, where we called Nada to pick us up. It was a great hike.

At the shepherd's hut at mountain pasture Preval.

Arriving to mountain pasture Planina Planinca, 1136 m.

The chimney wasn't producing any smoke, so we just continued.

Slovenia: Leaving Komna


It was our last day on Komna and it was time to clean up the hut, pack everything and leave for the valley. Since Nada and Bronco joined us yesterday, I took Bronco and we did a quick hike to nearby Difovski vrh, 1579 m and then we said goodbye to Majerca hut. The way down was long again, still we had a great time. See you on the next adventure.

Slovenia: Backcountry Skiing - Lanževica


In the morning we had a storm, so we stayed inside the hut, but as soon as we saw, that it will go away, Miha and me put on our skis and we started walking towards saddle Bogatinsko sedlo, 1803 m. The weather totally cleared up and we continued to our peak, Lanževica. After 3 hours we were admiring the view from the summit and then we returned back to our Majerca hut and on the way we did a few awesome curves.

On our 2nd day of backcountry skiing camp we decided to conquer Mahavšček, a 2008 m high mountain located on the north-western outskirts of the Lower Bohinj Mountains. The trip was much easier than yesterday, still we spiced it up with some trips through the mugo pine trees.
