A ridge of three peaks leaves Jalovec southwestwards, being first Veliki Ozebnik (2482m), then Vrh Zelenic(2278m), and finally Mali Ozebnik(2324m).
The altitudes are copied from maps, some editions might differ.
Mali Ozebnik is at the head of the Bala valley (Bala then turns into Bavscica).
To the W of Mali Ozebnik, the Cez Brezice col (2011m) links to Plesivec (the northern most peak of the immense Log Wall/Loska Stena).
To the E, the Skrbina za Gradom notch separates Mali Ozebnik from Pelc nad Klonicami (the northern most Pelc of the Pelc ridge).
 Mali Ozebnik NW face (winter photo) | The limestone wall of the Mali Ozebnik NW face is at the upper end of the Koritnica left bank, just E of Plesivec (Log Wall).
The only reference to this wall is in the now unfindable "Moznica and Koritnica climbing guide" by Igor Skamperle & Edo Kozorog (1985).
The Mali Ozebnik NW face is mentioned in this book as short and steep, but as not having been climbed.
It must be something like 250m tall.
Koritnica valley winter climbs and icefalls are to be found in this climbing guide.
GETTING THERE
From the Koritnica valley, this route takes us to the foot of our wall before continuing towards the Cez Brezice col (3 hours from the barrier).

E appoach:
The Skrbina za Gradom notch may easily be rejoined (marked and secured path) from the Zavetisce pod Spickom hut (Ext. link in English).
