The crossing is quite easy when the sun is shining and softens up the snow. You have to be comfy to hike/traverse steepish (30 degrees) snow fields. Snow starts in earnest at about 1400m altitude. Finding the correct way down on the Theth side is very(!) hard though. The path is completely buried until 1400m as well and there arent many visible waymarkings. I would consider it impossible to find without a highly accurate GPS and a good track to follow (or obviously a local guide).

Pictures (and some german text) are here, feel free to copy some into your blog and link if you want: http://www.mtb-news.de/forum/showthread.php?p=10584894#post10584894

Greetings from Shkoder and thanks again for two relaxing nights in Valbona.
