On Sunday I was on Turska gora. There on the summit there was sun, up close I watched a herd of ibex and also a herd of chamois. Unforgettable and I won't add unnecessary words, because those who experienced it don't need comments, because words are too kitschy to describe it...
Through Turski žleb I walked confidently, I was only afraid of the upper scree at the exit from Turski žleb..and that for downhill..much more than the wires. But I'll overcome that too, because there's no way back when you see what's up there.
And thanks to all who understand me, thanks Jelči.
Kotliči will wait for next time..they won't escape!

I really apologize to everyone again... I'm sorry ... my writing is sincere.. unfortunately misunderstood.. and I stand by every word written.. at 42 I first stepped in front of the walls of local climbing areas with company.. I'm in such company.. sometimes someone lets me.. when they're too tired, I hang a bit on the rope.. God is my witness, I've already cried from terror in the wall... sworn never again... but I didn't... because I want to overcome this terrible fear of heights.. it was similar at Kamnik saddle too.. on the snowfield before the ascent with cables I was all teary because I was afraid to cross the snow ... he barely convinced me to go on.. not to mention the exposed path back... but I want to face this fear.. and I'll try.. I don't know how successful I'll be.. everyone around me is tired of my monologues about mountains.. etc.. I wanted to share feelings with you.. I thought someone would understand me.. but sadly not, I'm really sad... and I really didn't mean anything bad... I've never been athletic.. it wasn't my thing in life.. until now.. I'm trying to change that.. in many ways.. got rid of extra 26 kilos.. move as much as possible... also by going where I wouldn't have dared even in dreams before..

Thanks, Griha, and I really apologize to everyone I've tortured in any way... nice regards

Big thanks to all for the detailed replies and trip reports.. it helps a lot.. now I'm even more scared.. hehe.. luckily I'm more cheeky by nature and like to laugh.. at myself.. especially at my little fear...
..but I realize the seriousness of all this and take responsibility for my decisions.. nobody's forcing me.. but I want it already..
..my fitness? ...hm ..not exactly brilliant.. every third Sunday I hop to Slavnik .. twice a week a bit of cycling... some day I run a kilometer or three... some pilates.. and that's it.. oh.. some Sunday you catch me in some wall at Črni Kal, where I struggle with a 4 or 5... I'm louder than the birds around.. but more because that's me.. sharing feelings with the world... whether needed or not.. to the mountains we go like this.. the day before in the afternoon to Okrešelj.. sleep there. and from there the next day do the planned tour.. mainly because of work weekends and such that prevent going more often..
I'll give what was written to my guide to read.. and see what he says.. interests me.. he's an experienced hiker with good fitness.. at least that..

My dear will take me on Saturday, if the weather is nice, for the first time properly into the high mountains. I've only been to Kamniško sedlo from Okrešelj. The first time I was quite scared. We'll go from Okrešelj up the Turski žleb, to Turska gora, then via Kotliči to Kamniško sedlo. I bought a helmet, via ferrata set and happily to the mountains.... I still can't sleep at night from excitement and when I have time I browse here on the site and examine the routes in detail..
..whether I'll be a mountaineer or not time will tell...
...the mountains have tempted me all my life and with awe and respect I'm heading among those beautiful walls... keep your fingers crossed for me and when I return I'll surely write something.. I certainly won't be indifferent..
..that's how it is when a Primorje woman of middle years goes for the first time somewhere where before by my standards only the chosen went.. and thanks to my dear one who describes with such passion the feelings he experiences up there under the clouds... I wouldn't miss that for any money..
