Hi, I'm considering climbing Triglav, Slovenia in winter conditions, ideally as some sort of easier gully/ridge climb, rather than full on mixed climbing on vertical ice/rock.

I've tried looking for any sort of descriptions / guidebooks, but there doesn't seem to be much, certainly not for winter conditions. The only book we found is this: https://sidarta.si/izdelek/zimski-vzponi/ but it seems sold out pretty much everywhere.

Anyone have a tip for a guide book or some route descriptions?

Thanks! From looking through the samle pages at Amazon, it seems to be all summer alpine rock climbing though, right? I am looking for winter routes

This has a mixture of cascade ice and mixed, plus a lot of the big mountain lines. I'd be happy to send you some photocopies of the routes on Triglav that are covered (all in Slovene though).

Awesome, that would be great. I did find the book online after some research, but couldn't find a shop that would stock it
