Koplje has been climbed only once before, in 1972, by Ante Bedalov and Stacimir Gostovic.

This February, Fourth Winter Climbing Seminar was held under organization of BMC (British Mountaineering Council). Seminar was held in Glemur Lodge and for the first time there were some participants from S&M , among them one of the EST members. Seminar gathered around forty different climbers from twenty various countries. Organization was great and I would like to thank people from BMC, who were at our disposal all the time. Aside from numerous guests, seminar was also attended by about forty hosts, responsible for guiding us through the climbing areas.
