Mt. Menina and first snow
|
|
|
We parked the car along the gravel road and walked towards the top in the distance.
|
|
After fifteen minutes we passed this little chaped of St. Anton.
|
|
The ground was barely covered with snow that had fallen a few days before.
|
|
The area is full of small lakes that were now almost frozen.
|
|
We walked past fence and a flank of trees ...
|
|
... and through the forest ...
|
|
... across the grassy plains ...
|
|
... until we got to the summit called Vivodnik at 1508 meters above sea level.
|
|
The views towards the Kamnik Alps were fantastic.

The Kamnik Alps: mighty Mt. Planjava to the left and Mt. Ojstrica to the right.
|
|
Mt. Ojstrica in all its glory.
|
|
After a few minutes of merciless wind at the top we ran back for cover. And we weren't the only ones. ;)
|
|
Layers to the south.
|
|
Last sun rays.
|
|
The light was getting sweeter and sweeter by the minute.
|
|
I took out the battery for every shot and warmed it up in my hands.
|
|
It looks heavenly, but it was coooold.
|
|
I still couldn't put away the camera.
|
|
Looking back to where we came from.
|
|
The road to the valley.
|
|
A bit lower the temperatures were more tolerable and the slope bathed in the late-afternoon light.
|
|
A pile of logs at the side of the road.
