Looking back to where we just descended from.Nov 24, 2009
|
|
When we were almost back in the valley, we could see that we were actually in a layer of fog. Brana above us.Nov 24, 2009
|
|
Sliding down the scree from the Kokra Saddle was the most tiresome part of the whole climb.Nov 24, 2009
|
|
We saw a girl in only a T-shirt. Brrrrrr!Nov 24, 2009

A bit further down the slope the wind abated a bit and I was able to change lenses again. Velika planina in the distance.Nov 24, 2009
|
|
My estimate is that about 50 people climbed Grintovec that Sunday.Nov 24, 2009
|
|
There wasn't just one trail, there were hundreds.Nov 24, 2009
|
|
Descening was much faster than climbing.Nov 24, 2009
|
|
In 15 minutes my fingers froze while taking photos, so we soon headed back down.Nov 24, 2009
|
|
Soon more people reached the summit, braving the wind. Can you see snow particles in the air?Nov 24, 2009

|
|
Finally we reached the top!Nov 24, 2009
|
|
Kalški greben in the background.Nov 24, 2009

The last slope is deceptive: slanting at an steady angle it makes the peak look closer than it really is.Nov 24, 2009
|
|
Slowly we made our way up the mountain.Nov 24, 2009
|
|
Somebody was bored. :)Nov 24, 2009

After putting our jackets, caps and gloves on we continued towards Grintovec.Nov 24, 2009

It had been relatively warm until we reached the saddle, but there the howling wind almost blew us over.Nov 24, 2009
|
|
Yellow mist in the valley.Nov 24, 2009

|
As we were making our way up to the Kokra Saddle, the sunrise colored the looming walls above us orange.Nov 24, 2009
|
|
Starting early from the Kamniška Bistrica valley meant we had to use our headlamps before it dawned above Velika planina.Nov 24, 2009
