Peakware - Bogdaš (590 words)
Bogdaš is a majestic peak in the Kosovar Prokletije mountains, with a fine rugged summit ridge where the climber is forced to aplly his/her hands.
Bogdaš was said to be the second highest top in the Yugoslav Prokletije, after Djeravica (2656m), but according to the maps, it is (was)"only" the third highest after the second Maja e Gusanit (2540m), a border peak between Kosovo and Albania.
Bogdaš offers a stunning view of almost all of the eastern Prokletije: Djeravica and Maja Rops tower in the south, Žuti kamen, Nedžinat and distant Hajla rise in the north and Krš Èevrlje and Veternik are to the east.
Dinaric Alps - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (873 words)
They extend for 400 miles (645 km) along the coast of the Adriatic Sea (northwest-southeast), from the Julian Alps in the northwest down to the Šar-Korab massive, where the mountain direction changes to north-south.
The highest mountain of the Dinaric Alps is the Prokletije, located on the border of eastern Montenegro and northern Albania, with the peak called "Lake Crest" at 2,692 m or 8,833 ft (Maja Jezerce in Albanian, Jezerski vrh in Serbian).
However, in the Prokletije, a range on the northern Albanian border that runs east to west (thus breaking the general geographic trend of the Dinaric system), there is evidence of major glaciation.
