Mali Ozebnik

The peak right of Škrbina za Gradom still doesn't have its own space, so I'm opening one for it. From Vršič I headed to Pelc nad Klonicami. Up to the Hut under Špička nothing happens, from there across scree to Škrbina za Gradom there are some snow patches frozen in the morning, but footprints are made and it goes nicely with a bit of caution. From the saddle left to Pelc nad Klonicami nice scrambling, but the story ended for me above the saddle there. Returned to Škrbina za Gradom and continued to Mali Ozebnik. A bit disappointed with "defeat" on Pelc, went straight up steep grass to the top without seeking easier ways, in the sense of "climbed II on Pelc ridge no problem, so I'll easily put this slope in my pocket". Classic "rookie mistake"!!! Slid two meters on steep grass, warning no harm. Then continued calmly and summited. On the descent indulged in scree. nasmeh

Descent to Vršič is history. Whole path dry, except as said to saddle. Lucky Erjavčeva hut open, because due to road closure can't reach valley before five. mežikanje

You didn't say the main thing. What was the cause of your "defeat"?

I presume this spot.

Short chimney but very exposed, narrow in the notch.

The notch a bit below the summit. In ascent direction above (before) notch is anchor. Watch showed 2403m height! Elsewhere surmountable issues, so it will go to the top.

Some glimpses from today's nice tour to Mali Ozebnik. Path to Škrbina behind Grad without special features. Path to Mali Ozebnik on steep grasses and exposed ridge. Slip risk, extra caution needed. No snow on path.
Nice mountaineer's regards.

Mali Ozebnik from Koritnica

Start at 6:30 from ramp in Loška Koritnica and on macadam nicely ascending. Reach stream to cross on rocks and almost at wall. There steep ascent starts right away secured by cable and some bent pegs. Reach copse where see Simon clearing path of excess scrub nicely. Follow steep path and at 10 on saddle "Čez Brežice". From there first on grass then some climbing to notch. From here left to gully and bit on sharp ridge and already on top. Sun shone wind blew so stayed on top almost hour before back to valley where ice-cold Koritnica awaited refreshment on very hot day. Walked 13km and 1600m.
