Slovenian page about conditions (someone could get the point though it is in our language.. - at least the pictures are international...)

General: 

11.3.2010 Some icefalls in Tamar and higher up are still OK, all the rest has gone. Very high avalanche danger in the mountains!

1.3.2010 Everything is melting, a lot of snow in the mountains. Some higher icefalls might still be OK, but the approach could be dangerous

23.2.2010 Rainy and warm, most of the low ice has gone. Higher up there is still a high avalanche risk

18.2.2010 Warming up and raining! Ice is no more safe and the temperatures predicted are high! Maybe after weekend it will be cold again...

12.2.2010 Perfect ice climbing conditions, but a lot of fresh snow and high avalanche danger! Try lower icefalls, they are well done too.

30.1. 2010 Quite a lot of ice, conditions getting better, but a lot of snow today...

24.1.2010 Cold weather continues, but still not much ice. Good ice climbing is reported in Tamar (crowd!). Besides, some high placed icefalls are done, lower ones not yet. Some routes in the mountains are well done.

13.1.2010 Lots of snow during last week, some ice in Tamar but generally conditions are bad. Light snowfall predicted till end of the week, temperatures around freezing point

4.1.2010 Freezing again, but no icefalls yet. If it continues there might be some ice in Tamar till end of the week

1.1.2010 Meanwhile there were some days really good for iceclimbing, but now it is again warm and rainy. If it starts freezing next week, there might be a chance to climb some ice in a week. Not worth coming for ice in next days -:(

14.12.2009 Finally some freezing -:) No icefalls yet -:(

9.12.2009 Warm weather after rainfall, so don't expect any ice in next 2 weeks. Some snow in the mountains, but not really much. Climbing conditions - shitty

15.11.2009 Nothing yet, some snow above 1800m and about 50 cm at 2500m. No ice, no freezing

15.3.2009 It is warm spring weather, no more ice climbing around. Lots of snow in the mountains, but one should be fast to come back before noon when the avalanches start.

21.2.2009 Getting better and better for ice -:) Cold during the night and cold higher up in the mountains. Snow conditions above 1600 m are bad

17.2.2009 Good ice climbing weather though most of the icefalls are not yet formed. Good conditions in Tamar valley, till weekend probably also somewhere else. Higher up (above 1500m) the snow is still soft.

Tamar today:

2.2.2009 Snowing, somewhere raining, bad -:(

30.1.2009 Warm weather, rainy, the icfalls have melted -:( Some snow has fallen, avalanche danger is high. From sunday on, more rain or snow is expected

21.1.2009 It is raining, so it probably has affected the lower icefalls while higher up there is a lot of fresh snow (avalanche danger). The weekend seems to be bad as well

15.1.2009 Great ice climbing conditions especially in Logarska valley, Bohinj and Tamar. Yesterday and today about 15 cm fresh snow fell.

25.12.2008 Nice and cold sunny weather and lots of snow above 1500m. Still some avalanche danger, some icefalls in Tamar valley and Jezersko are OK. Most icefalls have not formed because it was too warm and too much snowfall. Logarska valley - no ice

1.12.2008 Raining till 1000m, snowing in the mountains. Warm, avalanche danger...

29.11.2008 Some icefalls have formed quite well and it was possible to climb (Jezersko, Predel, Tamar). Now it is raining or snowing, so we have to wait...

If you want to spend your climbing holiday in Slovenia, I bet you'll be able to do some nice climbs this winter and in case of bad weather at least have good food and drink for reasonable price! Send mail if you need accomodation or ice condition info. E Mail

Ice just under the Predel border pass (SLO-I border). These icefalls are frozen among first and can survive periods of warm weather -:)
