Last week Maja and I organised a Slovenian women’s climbing meeting.

Our main aim was to find out if the women climbers in Slovenia are really “endangered species”. We have a lot of female climbers, but most of them are sport climbers – some climb in the mountains (but usually not leading). We were on the look out for young climbers, who may have been wanting to go on expeditions.


We spent three nice days in the Carnic alps, climbing a lot in the beautiful limestone faces which were really sunny. We then spent long evenings in the friendly hut Calvi.
Here’s my daughter Alenka aged 13 and Mira aged 55 years old – she’s still leading and climbing a lot!
