Long Description:
A while ago I had an active group vacation in Slovenia where we had an attempt to climb the Triglav mountain. It was with a klettersteig route along the north face. We didn't make it to the top but it was still a great experience. I found out that there was a book written about the mountain climbing at the Triglav: Triglav 240
