Gangolf, you did nice tours, despite not perfect weather.
One suggestion: Instead of relying on GPS tracks, posted by whoever, try to rely on SummitPost. From Mali Draški vrh there is indeed no direct path down on the saddle towards Veliki Draški vrh. The ridge is exposed, brittle as well and a stretch of it required UIAA II degree downclimbing.
Cheers!

Re: Bag well filled with summits
Of course you are right about the GPS track. BUT - this is what I read on Bor's page:
On the W side is connected with Veliki Draski vrh with the beautiful ridge. This ridge can be climbed and the difficulty is not harder then UIAA II-III. Between Veliki and Mali Draski vrh is a small pass and from this pass to the summit of Mali Draski vrh goes this route.
So I guess I would have made the same mistake. And anyway, if you are in the saddle you can actually think you see the route. From the top it also looked like a path - however, it looked harder than our league ;-)
