"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

Great peak!Beautiful peak in Karavanke range.
Starting from Ljubej we passed the Zelenica hut on a way and ascended the peak in cloud. On a way down it cleared out and we had a great vies on green valleys in Austria and Bled lake in Slovenia.

from ZelenicaIt was january 2005, I think, we climbed Vrtaca by Y-shaped gully, rather steep, very good snow conditions, we met some skiers, it did not seem to me like a place to ski.Came down on the other side, much softer snow, sticking to crampons.Very proud
