Triglav glacier under imminent threat of disappearing
Ljubljana, 7 November - Measurements from the end of September show that the glacier below Slovenia's highest mountain Triglav (2,864 m) has split into two parts in the past year and has also shrunk and thinned, with the threat of the glacier disappearing being imminent. The glacier under the Skuta peak is meanwhile in better shape.
