Re: CONGRATS

Hi, this mountain is part of the area that is most densely populated with bears in Europe. These bears were in 20 meter distance from me. But I was not afraid of them because it was not an accidental meeting. I could watch them from a shelter that was built by the local hunter. He told me that bears come to this place every day. And it was true :-) Cheers, Szani

Re: CONGRATS

Are you familiar with the fact, that in Ticha and Koprova valleys separated by Liptovské Kopy live at least 40 brown bears? I consider this Tatra´s wilderness one of the most densely populated bear countries...

Cheers Lukas

Re: CONGRATS

Hi Lukas, Good to know! I haven't been to these valleys yet (only on Kriván and on Temniak/Kresanica/Malolacniak/Kopa Kondracka), but I will be very-very careful if ever I go there! Cheers, Szani
