Great picture!

It was very disappointing to see some of your more recent pictures receive low votes as I feel they have all been more than deserving of 4 stars.

Re: Great picture!

Kane has some of the colors too when he has been shooting some of the red granite. Quite nice

Re: Great picture!

Dont forget - this is NOT red granite, but white limestone!

Re: Great picture!

... and you have to break more sweats to get into right place at right time in such snow conditions!

Wow

Just brilliant! Very few photos have made me want to visit an unfamiliar place more than this shot! It looks very rocky - what is the climbing like there?

Re: Wow

Thanks Dan!! It is well worth the visiting, scenery is amazing and very unique! Rozanski Kukovi group is strict preserve for almost 40 years and climbing is forbidden here. But if you like climbing Paklenica canyon on South Velebit (this is North Velebit) offers endless choice of routes and you can combine these two areas in one visit.
