Yesterday morning my friend and I parked at the Perk farm in Matkov kot. A bit below Lesnikovo sedlo a nice roe deer barked at us and let us know we were on his turf. From the saddle we continued along the upper path to Jerebičje. This path is panoramically especially beautiful as it runs along the ridge all the time, so you soak up the wonderful view with your eyes and soul. From Jerebičje we went down to Matkovo sedlo and on across Matkov Grintovec towards the entry gully to Matkova kopa. While traversing below Matkova kopa we spotted a herd of chamois at the game salt lick. The upper part of the path to Kopa we did directly along the ridge. At the top there were two chamois that with a dizzying drop to the Austrian side showed the incredible abilities of these wonderful animals. Further towards Krničko sedlo we stuck to the ridge path as much as there is.velik nasmeh It runs alternately on our and Austrian side. David already before the saddle decided for descent into Matkova krnica and then up the scree to the entry into the climbing part of the path to Krnička gora. I continued along the ridge and from the saddle upwards right below the ridge on our side. There while walking a nice viper surprised me and with a few hisses let me know not to mess with it. A bit higher I had to, as many times on the path, fight with the brush again, which can be quite fun.velik nasmeh While climbing to Krnička gora we enjoyed it a lot, even more on its summit. We just couldn't believe it, despite all the adventures on the path, that it wasn't even late yet. Since we still had enough time and energyvelik nasmeh, we climbed up to Mrzla gora too. Climbing it was pure pleasure. The lower part we climbed through the gully left of the ridge and a bit higher continued along the ridge to the top. After a longer stop on its summit we decided for descent to Matkov škaf and then up the road to Perk. The path to Škaf is full of scree in the lower half and requires great concentration when walking. In the lower part right on the tricky section a bolt on the cable is pulled out. Although the weather didn't allow nice shots, it gave an even stronger sense of remoteness of these paths. Forgive us our squealing, but we couldn't help it, as this was one of our best mountain paths.
Nice greetings from under the beautiful Golte, Janez

Matkov kot and along the marked path to Latvice. Then traverse steep slope to Krnička gora. After break I descend along ridge and climb also to Matkova kopa, after another break I descend and continue to Jerebičje. From there descent first along wide road, then steep forest, hunting path, bit of grass and soon back to start. Nice day but mostly quite damp, wet for walking, so whole day I walked more cautiously and slower. Nice day.

Today with a forum colleague (kitta) we circled one part of Matko's kingdom.

Despite a not too promising morning, the sun showed above Jevševec and brightened our views of golden larches.
To Matkova kopa we climbed along the ridge and continued to Krnička gora. From there towards Latvice, past the non-existent Škaf, and already before the hunting hut up to the middle path and along it to Matko, where the car was waiting.
The morning didn't promise much.1

Friday 18.8.2017
We managed to do a beautiful tour last weekend: one Primorka and two Štajerca. The initiative came from the Primorska end and it was even more of a pleasure for me to show the hidden corners in our parts. Since my friend mentioned on the last tour his wish for this traverse, I invited him too.
We started the tour still in the dark a little below Matkova homestead. After a short search for the path start we soon enjoyed the beautiful path to Matkovo sedlo. I was surprised when on the scree with the ridge I started picking tasty red berries and they didn't know what those fruits were. When I explained what a specialty jam is made from them, they tried them too and were thrilled with their rich taste. Although the trail to Matkovo sedlo already stings like hell, it really started only from Matkov zob upwards. We managed the ascent to Matkova kopa without issues. The Primorka already showed there what good stuff she's made of. She enjoyed it fully, same as us two. Especially interesting to them seemed the quite hidden tubular window in the upper part of the ridge.
From Kopa on we followed the ridge for a while, but lower we pulled away from it as our bare legs were already painted with quite a few traces of bushes and sharp rocks. The younger two also handled one tough problem, I diplomatically avoided it. Between Kopa and Krnička I hit a crisis and at Škrbina below Krnička suggested a rest which helped me greatly as I continued much easier. Luckily the sun was merciful to us and shyly hid behind translucent high clouds for longer periods.
From Krnička we already saw our whole continuation to Mrzla gora. On Grebenu Krničke we peeked through the very airy window towards Škaf of course. The lower part of the ascent to Mrzla had even more mixed feelings with so much air below. When higher up we got back on the ridge, the continuation on more compact rock to the top was pure pleasure. On the Mrzla gora summit we happily shook hands and enjoyed the silence. Enjoyment was also visible on some neighboring peaks.
We descended the marked path through Latvico and past Matkov škaf. On it safety gear is damaged in two places. Below Škaf we disturbed Matkov's sheep herd at rest and wondered what they're doing on such un-vegetated terrain.
After 12 hours we finished the wonderful tour. It was full of everything expected and more. Companions, thanks for the really pleasant company.
Best and safe steps to all from under beautiful Golte, Janez

Jerebičje-M.Kopa-Krnička-Mrzla Gora (16.7.22)

After evening rain a nice morning formed, at least above 1700m. I left the car lower at the bend so I walked up the road to Perk. Here to the forest clearing, in between I cut some corners. Expected somewhat shorter grass than what I got today. Not much to turn back, but now it wasn't important anymore since I was already wet. Only after Jerebičje before the wall of Matkove Kopa it was drier compared to before. Matkov zob unfortunately not visible because fog was right there around 1700m. Sun was nicely shining. From the top descend right side to the ridge over the needles. Only in two parts I had to move aside from bushes, I always to the left although right is easier at start. The last part before Krnička saddle could be quite tricky and interesting for first-timer. Nice passage from right down. From Krnička Gora top then to the window and further for a change from previous ascents more direct ascent. Some snow still left at škaf, just for cooling beer nasmeh. Weather was great.
