Hello, hikers.

On Saturday I might go on this hike:

http://www.hribi.net/izlet/golice_dom_na_menini_planini_/3/193/2948

What the weather was like there I have no idea. Currently it shows that this morning there was some snowing, afternoon sun. Tomorrow cloudy around 2°C, Saturday clear -3°C, both days no precipitation, snow.

According to forecast and current conditions: will it be possible to reach the top in mid-high boots, without gaiters? Crampons and ice axe probably not needed since under Recommended equipment (winter) nothing is listed on hribi.net? I have all that anyway, the companion currently doesn't.

Is there snow on the path itself (new)? Will it be icy on the path on Saturday?

Thanks for info.

NO WORRIES GO ON THE PATH. SNOW IS HERE AND THERE JUST FOR SHOW. WE'RE GOING SUNDAY. WALK WELL, IF FOG THEN BETTER TURN BACK. EVEN WE WHO KNOW MENINA WELL TURN BACK IN FOG HOME OR TO ČEMŠENIŠKO PLANINA. LET US KNOW HOW IT WAS. BEST JOŽE

Yesterday 31.1. free day in plan I had something else but since forecast very windy in heights I decided for Menina pasture precisely its highest peak Vivodnik. Started very late as at 8 was still in Maribor due to some errands so start at 9.30 at gas station in village Golice-Tuhinjska dolina. Path without specials in low snow little or none from 1300m onwards quite a lot sometimes over half meter. In last part path not trodden deep sinking so put on gaiters. Completely alone nowhere living soul just occasionally some crow lingeredvelik nasmeh Crampons not needed no ice. Weather just like March when spring comes. View fantastic.

Best! Tonenasmeh

Menina pasture on Saturday.
From Gornji Grad track over Borovnica (as we noticed) and from Semprimožnik where we went. At start skis on road, then dragged skis on forest roads and clearings, in upper part joined the track. At hut refreshed at always friendly caretakers. Down followed ski track over meadows into gully then through forest to start. Wonderful powder ski down. Towards top 50 to 100 cm snow.
Up along forest tracks and roads.1

Gornji Grad-Semprimožnik-Vivodnik and ski back.
Yesterday on Menina pasture beautiful weather formed and revealed a wonderful winter fairy tale. Past Semprimožnik after last snowfall the track has been made again, there is of course more snow than a week ago.

Hello,
like Ado I'm also interested whether the hut is open as stated on the PZS website. I've almost been stranded several times if I hadn't called the individual PD, because PZS data isn't accurate.
Some caretakers wondered where PZS gets the data from.
Has anyone gone from Golica to Menina after the last snowfall?

Bbrina27. 02. 2013 13:09:53
As far as I noticed and they also said, no one has come from Golica yet (that was the situation a week ago, 17.02). Now it's even more snowy.
Regards

The hut will be open over the weekend. 100% from 11am on Saturday and Sunday. Maybe already Friday because of winter holidays.
Best regards and safe steps from below the beautiful Golte, Janez

Katty why fear the snow
take your darling's hand
and head to beautiful Menina
where snow they measure only in length.
Crocus surely still blooms up there
blooming saffron I don't worry.
Safe both on the way to the pasture
with happy impressions return to valley.nasmeh
