    • 2000 October 7, Magdalena Jachim, “Stalowe ścieżki”, in Dziennik Bałtycki:
      Nie raz wędrując szlakiem, napotyka się na pozostałości drutu kolczastego, czy konserw sprzed 80 lat. Największe zdumienie budzą jednak budowle wojskowe wzniesione na gołej skale na wysokości prawie 3 tysięcy metrów n.p.m. oraz tunele, wydrążone w górze i prowadzące na jej szczyt.
      From time to time, hiking along the trail, one encounters remains of barbed wire or canned goods from 80 years ago. But the most surprising are the military buildings raised on bare rock over 3 thousand meters above sea level and the tunnels drilled in the mountain and leading up to its summit.
