June 13, 2024, 10 pictures

          Most images are approximately 768 x 1024 pixels in size, numbers in front of the picture descriptions are serial numbers of the original photo files. The cave was discovered, explored and documented by Claudio Bratos and Stojan Sancin. Most cave part names are the author's.
          The purpose of the field trip was to revisit one of the most beautiful caves in Matarsko podolje (the Materija valley).

53726. View from Razdrto to the saddle below Nanos, which appears from the mist, with two wind farms






 
53727. Flowering smoke tree, Cotinus coggygria in Kozina






 
53738. Place where the path to the cave forks off the forest road may not be so easy to find, but when you cross this trunk, the cave is nearby.
