After the predominantly scientific mountaineering years come those of the more technical climbs, those that are done to reach the summit because it is the utmost, and through ways to be found climbing up. In 1880 Julius Kugy "father of the Julian Alps " , started his activity. Julius Kugy accomplished many climbs (remember the " direct " on the north face of the Montasio, his preferred mountain, the numerous ways to reach the Jof Fuart from the north and the "North-eastern throat ", the way from east to the Verde peak, etc.). Kugy wrote a lot. His prose, written in German, romantic in its form and content, represents the major contribution thanks to his knowledge of the Julian Alps. Pioneer of Slovenian mountaineering was Henrik Tuma (1858-1935). Destiny had it that he was contemporary with Kugy, who involuntarily overshadowed his important work of exploration and toponymic study in the Eastern Julian Alps. In 1886 Tuma accomplished a solitary climb up the north slope of the Mojstrovka and continued his numerous and not easy solitary explorations for many years; in 1910 he opened the "way of the Slovenians " at the Tricorno.
