Thank you Zoran and Matevz for help with translations. We have Spanish, German, Russian and French speakers on staff, but no Slovenian! Matevz
And this is the route: pzs.si/javno/mediji/Alp.odprava_Charakusa2011-Nova%20smer,%20Sanjaci_zlatih%20jam-foto_arhiv_odprave_res.jpg Matevz
Also the name of the new route is Dreamers of Golden caves. Zoran
Sorry for pointing this out ... Google translate gives you translation of the name LUKA STRAZAR, to Port Sentry. Expedition leader was Urban Novak (Mountaineering Club Kamnik Solovenia) and members David Debeljak (Rašica Mountaineering Club), Luka Strazar (Academic Mountaineering Club) and Nejc Marčič (Mountaineering Club Radovljica).

Maybe Matevz and I can watch for significant Slovenian climbs and mail to you translations? Of course free of charge! :-)
