Today we climbed to the top of Storžič for the first time via Kramarica and Črna grapa. Original plan was Žrelo - Peto žrelo but we turned back and followed the ski tourers to Kramarica. No rock steps because everything is covered, snow is hard and holds steps well. If there's more warm weather I highly recommend. We returned to Dom pod Storžičem via Peto žrelo.

Nice weather and we used it for ascent via Zelenica and central gully to V. peak. On the ski slope there's still some snow but some ski tracks are already carved. During the ascent we saw some skiers too, all went towards Triangle. In the central gully the snow cover gradually thickened and to the glacier we walked on pure powder. Crossing the glacier was a demanding task, then to the top pure enjoyment. Clouds gathered around the top, we were in the sunshine. Returned to Zelenica via Y gully.

That's how it is, Slovenes love to do it in huts! I don't know why but that's how it is and foreigners aren't much better either. Of course it doesn't apply to everyone nor to the majority but the loud minority can stand out very very much.
On Wednesday some from Tržič had 50th anniversary at Kredarica. It was a real party and surely it bothered many hikers but in the hut they support it because that way they sell A LOT of drinks, surely also some off the counter.
