Has anyone been to Tosc in the last few days? Is the path to Tosc from Rudno polje already completely dry?
Thanks for the help smile

The path is dry.

Great, thanks for the info smile

Yesterday from Viševnik I saw some snow patches left and that's why I checked. So that snow is off the path.

On the path to Studorski preval there are still some snow patches, which are not problematic and could all be bypassed if one wanted. Further on, I don't know.

Aha thanks. The main thing where I'm worried about snow is exactly from Studorski preval onwards and especially on the slope of Tosc.

mavi12,

from Studorski preval on the "magistral" path onwards towards Tosc it was all dry already two weeks ago, also the southern slopes of Tosc were already almost completely snow-free. At least to the bend, which was visible from Ablanca. Here's a fresh pic, check the last post from Todi:

That little dusting that fell about 10 days ago is gone now. On the upper link there's a post from these areas that's 2 days old.

At Rudno polje we followed the restrictions written on signs and texts on boards. Until 15.6. driving to Uskovnica still allowed, turnoff to planina Konjščica closed with no-driving sign so parking at road end not possible... No sense in discussing the sense of such limits. So we walked one more kilometer than before. Did standard route via planina Konjščica to Jezerca, Studorski preval and Tosc and back same way to start. Delighted by numerous alpine flowers, views not ideal due to high air humidity but still nice. Easy path, no issues.

Early afternoon Rudno polje-Vodnikov dom and off-path to Tosc. A day of nice weather, warm at times hot, no wind on the summit. On such a nice day, sat a bit too long, arrived at Rudno polje just before dark.

Before description let me ask ...
Garmont, did I hit the characteristic rock which from my approach side wasn't so characteristic (pic 15), and passage (pic 19 from middle a bit left) or did I go my own? nasmeh

Today from Rudno polje towards Srenjski preval, but at Kačji rob abandon plan and turn to pathless east ridge of Viševnik. So this peak unexpectedly joined the trip. After descent to mentioned saddle continue under Mali Draški vrh and on to Veliki brat. From it descend ridge to Studorski preval. Before reaching it, start looking for characteristic rock as Garmont describes (see conditions: Tosc -> two posts with pics and short desc). Bad luck only that from my side not sharply pointed at all. Since didn't spot better candidate and no will to descend more to see its characteristic shape, started crossing. When reached spot for "right" passage over the slab, several options opened which I could choose, difficulty probably similar. Hope I chose the one Garmont mentioned.
Surprisingly no company on summit, even jackdaw just flew over and gone.

Return via main trail Vodnikov dom - Rudno polje, where quite lively, short-of-breath and sunburnt. Hope cooling ointments or yogurts helped the poor later.
