SLOVENSKI ALPINIZEM 2006

done by two parties in Norway (Aljaž Anderle and Klemen Premrl;
Aleš and Nejc Česen). Mixed routes of extreme grades were climbed
(up to M12+) in Switzerland and Italy (Marko Lukić).
Bad weather has prevented more frequent big face ascents in Western
Alps, nevertheless several high-grade free climbs were performed,
such as Kousmine, Bonatti Pillar and Abysse, by Marko Lukić and
Matjaž Jeran.

Proverbially difficult winter climbs in Julian Alps have become more
popular with younger alpinists, earning valuable experience for future
use in Patagonia and the Himalyas. Several first winter ascents were
done in Loška stena while some parties committed themselves to
repeat big traditional routes.
Throughout the summer, several alpine free ascents were made – Maček
in Križevnik, Metropolis in Triglav, Cupido in Aniča kuk (CRO), etc.
There were new lines added in Prisojnik, Rušica, Debela Peč, etc.
