Thanks, Bob! Yeah, the whole climb was kinda beyond the ordinary, if I was a cat I would've used up 3 lives on it. I've got the TR almost ready.
cheers,

Hey! Good that you found the info useful and congrats on climbing Vukoces! That's interesting about the shepherds singing, I've been there so many times and never heard it.
I know about the Slovenian and Montenegrin ascents of Vukoces in 2006 and 2008. I think they were both wrong with the name, Slovenians thought it was Maja Koprishtit and Montenegrins called it Maja Fortit but I'm quite sure it's Maja Vukoces. Maja Fortit is another peak neighbouring Vukoces, it was first climbed by Serbs in 2009. Here is the report and photos of the Montenegrins from 2008 and here is the Slovenian report from 2006. Unfortunately they are in Serbian and Slovenian. Here on the main page of Maja Lagojvet I wrote a paragraph telling which mountain is which in my opinion.
My Polish friends also climbed Maja Vukoces this summer via a new route from Ropojana valley.
Cheers,
Kamil
