Continental (NE) side of...

Continental (NE) side of Crnopac (1404m), highest peak of SE Velebit, seen from Lika region. Main summit is long flat ridge. Cone in front is Munizabin Vrh (1098m). Between them is unbelievable area of karst, one of wildest on Velebit. It is so called northern chaos of Crnopac which is drilled more than any Swiss cheese and contains few hundred speleological objects, mainly holes. Right of Munizabin Vrh is rocky head of Veliki Bat (1385m). Over it, on the way to main summit, ascends northern route via Tatekovo Skloniste refuge.

Great shot!

This is another excellent picture. One thing I have been wondering, however, is how would the word Vrh be pronounced in English?

Thanks TLM! Vrh means peak literally but it is struggle for you (English speaking world) to say it the way we do, I've heard it, you pronounce it harder.
