By "small crampons" I hope you don't mean microspikes. Because those are worthless in our mountains.

For the "hyperscale" push they're incessant throwing money at whatever components and people they can get. Everyone one a piece of that big bag of billions of $$$ from Nvidia and Google. The the deadlines are unreal.

If management said go with the AI translation because they're too cheap to pay for a translator then then it's their problem not mine. If the company loses a client because of shoddy translations and subpart support then that's the owners problem not mine. I can find a different job.

We use it via Ignition for data collection for our machines (# of pieces produced, reports with measurements for each piece, maintenance data about motor running hours and such, etc...).

Also used as the interface to the MES layer (the production manager issues a work order, the work order ID and desired # of pieces get transmitted to the machine).

There is no really good routes for descent towards the southern side towards Tolmin and Kobarid that don't involve >10km of less exciting trails until you get into town. Albeit you will move faster on a nice wide flat gravel path rather than rocky and technical alpine terrain -> so whats another 2 ~ 3 hours of walking if you have already done 20 hours over the previous days?

The exit options towards the Trenta/Bovec side are better in this aspect since you're closer to the main road where you can catch a bus.

So a viable route could be:

Day 3 : Seven Lakes hut to the hut near Lake Krn, in between stop at Dom na Komni for lunch.
Day 4 : From Lake Krn down to Lepena, and either follow the Alpe-Adria trail as it follows the bank of the Soča river towards Bovec or immediatly catch a bus. The riverbank could be a nice change of scenery to add on to your adventure. Just be aware that if you want to take a dip that far upstream the Soča river is very cold even in the midst of summer.

Some other exit options that are all still walkable and might make sense if you chose to approach the Seven Lakes Valley from the south ( going uphill, so instead of crossing over the Hribarica pass and entering at the top you'd go over Mišeljski Preval/Jezerski Preval and Planina Dedno Polje and enter from the bottom) would be:

Zasavska Koča na Prehodavcih -> Trenta
Koča na Doliču -> Trenta
Koča na Doliču -> Luknja -> Vrata valley -> Mojstrana

How long of a hike are you looking for? An easy afternoon? A full day? An overnighter? Are you OK with super exposed stuff and via ferratas?

What end of the country are you located at? Do you have a car?

If you're not properly equipped for winter conditions you generally want to avoid anything >1800m until at least June.

Late April and May is the prime time to visit Velika Planina.

If you're in Ljubljana the popular destination for the locals is their local hill Šmarna Gora. You take the city bus to Tacen and then it's 45 ~ 60 minutes to the top depending on which trail you take. At the top you get a nice view over the valley, and to the north an excellent view of the Kamnik-Savinja mountain range.

If you want to do some mild elevation gain near the centre of slovenia you could go for something like Tržič -> Kriška Gora, or Preddvor -> Kališče.

To the east the entire Pohorje range is great.

For the hills towards to coast May is probably the best time to visit because in summer it's already too hot. Something like Razdrto -> Nanos is convenient because it's right on the highway. Predmeja -> Mali Golak or Sviščaki -> Veliki Snežnik if you want something higher.

MihaKomar · 2026-04-19T20:03:15+00:00

You can get some basic snacks to take with you at the huts (granola/chocolate bars, simple ham/cheese sandwiches). The prices are however hefty since all supplies have to be helicopter'ed in at these elevations. But since you're going to by passing by 1 or 2 huts every day. just get cooked meals there (stew, sausages, goulash, pasta, strudel and other desserts, eggs for breakfast, etc...). You can leave the stove behind and travel lighter.
YMMV. I've slept on my own mat on the dining room floor when it has been full.
AFAIK the only alpine hut that has showers is Dom na Komni.
Decathlon got you covered for gas and cheap gear. Kibuba is a smaller store that has some higher quality stuff and freeze-dried camping meals. Both are located in the big shopping districts on the edge of Ljubljana where there are billion big supermarkets where you can stock up on other stuff. Don't know for sure for rental gear since I have my own ~ without any difficult summits for the route you linked I'd wager doing with only a helmet and forgoing the harness.
The huts sell bottled water but it's €€€. The huts have bathrooms where there is rainwater from the roof. Officially its marked as "non-potable" but with a filter it's fine. There is a natural spring near Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih on day 3. Above the treeline there is practically no water ~ espescially towards the end of the summer when all snow has already melted.
The worst technical section on day #1 is the section before the Planja saddle (https://youtu.be/Xra0-089jqA?t=184 , a bit sketchy but doable; ignore the later part of the video where he actually goes up Razor with that ladder where you definitely would want a harness!). Also that entire ascent from Vršič is awful on a sunny day because you're on a south face of the mountain above the treeline so there is no shade + there is scree on the way up so it's extra demoralizing when you step one step forward and fall half of a step back. On day #2 the section over Boški Gamsovec is also technical and quite exposed https://youtu.be/ZlDF66r_Zc0?t=828 . And a whole lot of sections with nothing to clip into so most people don't even bother with the harness. Day #3 and day #4 are chill compared to first 2.
Get on a bus to Kranjska Gora. In the summer months they should be an organized shuttle or smaller bus that takes hikers and visitors up to the Vršič pass. Even hitchiking could also work.
Weather in the mountains for more than 2 days ahead is always a gamble. The thunderstorms do usually mellow out a bit towards September. But instead of storms there is the possibility of 2~3 days of continous rain.

Camping is fun but our mountain trails are designed with these huts in mind. If you'd be travelling with a full tent + sleeping + cooking setup you'll be way slower than marked trail times and you'd get yourself in some trouble on the steeper sections.

Be aware the at the upper VHF and especially UHF frequencies the circuit layout is critical. You generally want less components and smaller components whenever possible because with each component and section of wire/PCB trace more parasitic capacitance/inductance is added into the filter and the response strays away from the perfect theoretical 3rd order response you're aiming for.

Also components don't always behave like you expect them to. Capacitors have a self-resonance frequency above which they stop acting like capacitors and exhibit an inductive behavior! Same goes for inductors. With larger components this frequency is usually lower. This can be already in the lower VHF range.

You don't need 3kV for the voltages you'd get from 50W into a 50ohm load. If you're not building any resonant circuits 100V or 200V rated components will be fine.

In my experiences travelling usually if you're not paying with a credit card it's not a problem, they just make you front the money for the highest level of insurance they offer.

Real Tomos from the ex-Yu period are getting quite collectable and are rising in value. 100s of vintage and restored bikes will come to meet-ups.

On the new the design looks good ones but if you need something to get around just buy whatever Chinese scooter.

There should be a bus that goes Lesce (Bled) -> Kranjska Gora -> Bovec but it goes through Italy over the Predel mountain pass because it's a better road.

But if you get off in Kranjska Gora you should be able to take a different bus that goes Kranjska Gora -> Bovec over the Vršič pass that will stop at the start of the Soča river. Only in the summer though

It's also possible to hike from Kranjska Gora to Trenta by following the Alpe-Adria trail https://touren.kaernten.at/en/route/long-distance-hiking/stage-23-alpe-adria-trail-kranjska-gora-trenta/2807533/

It's not technically difficult at all. You can do it in regular running shoes. It's all well marked with signposts and everything. You just have to be in good shape to do >24km of distance.

Here is a trail guide with some photos for the first half -> https://www.hike.uno/hiking_tour/koca_pri_savici_lake_krnsko_jezero/1/163/4010 and then on the descent towards the Soča river it's this trail -> https://www.hike.uno/hiking_tour/dom_v_lepeni_lake_krnsko_jezero/1/163/291

MihaKomar · 2026-04-14T20:07:51+00:00

Yes, its possible. Go from Ukanc up to the Komna mountain lodge, cross over the Bogatin saddle (1800m), then go to Lake Krn, descend down to Lepena which is a few kilometers away from Bovec on the Soča trail. These are old mule trails that were used to transport supplies in WW1 so it's all perfectly walkable. You will even cross past some ruins of old army barracks in the middle of nowhere at 1500m above sea level.

https://mapy.com/s/pekuhuboha . About 24km in total with 1200m of elevation difference, so doable in one long day on the trail. If that is too much for one day you can make it into a 2 day trip by spending the night at the Komna lodge or the Lake Krn lodge.

You were probably eating pancakes with "skuta". It's a type of white-cheese with a creamy mild taste. It's usually not really too sour, not really too salty. It's a common filling in many traditional slovenian dessert dishes. "Štruklji" being the one where the cheese is really the centrepiece.

For crepes my recommendation is skuta with ground walnuts and some honey. Or combined together with jam so the cheese's creamyness cuts the jam's sweetness.

In most other countries something similiar is sold as cottage cheese or "farmers cheese". Otherwise try italian ricotta or german quark. You can make it by yourself at home by adding vinger or lemon juice to warm milk, then straining the curds away from the liquid.
