Jerebica - Cima del Lago

The two names given in the title - the first in Slovenian, the second in Italian - describe the peak of a mountain just above the village of Log Pod Mangartom. Our hike up there took a little over three hours, with some quite steep and balancy sections in between. Both Julia and I were surprised that she went all the way up, seeing as she has so far always refused to try a via ferrata (in my opinion, some of the sections up Jerebica were by far more sketchy). Maybe it was because Miha made it all look so easy that we called him mountain goat.
At the peak we met our friends Matej and Mare, who had first pretended to have other plans only to get up even earlier than us and surprise us when we got there (and yeah ok, the sunrise pictures they took also look pretty cool). We were really lucky to still get a good view of Predil lake and the surrounding mountains before everything was hidden in the clouds a few minutes later. Even so, we took our time, had a picnic, a little nap and only then started our way back down.Baca lagi
