Ice climbing routes on the North face of Ďumbier

Looking Northeast from Ďumbier (2043 m) in the Lower Tatras. There are numerous ice climbing routes on the North face. 16 March 2012

Instead of the customary 4-day 'suffering' that we love to put ourselves through in the winter along the Donovaly-Certovica ridge, we were greeted by fantastic conditions. Neither crampons nor snowshoes were really necessary this time.
