Close to the end of Beli...

Close to the end of Beli potok valley. This couloir leads nowhere. It becomes steep, snow ends and extremely unstable rocks prevent you to go further. North face of Kukova špica is right above the couloir. July, 1971.

Re: Did you climb it?

I was also surprised when I saw this couloir. It was in July 1974. This is at the end of Beli potok and this couloir is going towards Sleme and Vrtaski vrh (towards E). I entered it, but after the snow finished and the ravine bacem steeper, the rock also became extremely bad. I could take the whole mountain with me home. Not on the left, nor on the right it was any better, and I was still very low. So I returned, also because I was alone there.

But maybe in better conditions (not so snowless)! I think it has to be climbed already! :-)



Thanks for posting this shot!
