Unveiling of the memorial plaque to the mountain guide Janez Černuta – Voznik

On the 160th anniversary of Janez Černuta – Voznik: unveiling of a memorial plaque with cultural programme, followed by a hike and memorial mass.

160 years ago, the mountain guide Janez Černuta, known locally as Voznik, was born in Log pod Mangrtom. He made his living from a modest mountain farm and occasionally guided tourists in the surrounding mountains, among them Julius Kugy and especially Henrik Tuma. He was a contemporary of the better-known guides from the Trenta Valley; in 1906 he attended a mountain guide course in Ljubljana, organized by the Slovenian Mountaineering Society. To mark the anniversary, a memorial plaque will be unveiled on his birthplace with a short cultural programme. The following day, a hike and a memorial Holy Mass will be held in remembrance of all mountaineers who lost their lives in our mountains.
