In reply to JohnnyW:
Make sure you get the right start with a recce night beforehand then get an early start before the guides. In summer there really aren't many operating because all the younger guides are off in the Alps.
The ascent is pretty direct and obvious with a lot of grade 1& 2 ground and odd sections of grade 3. Have short amount of rope ready to protect these moves. Can't remember if in situ gear or not; I suspect they will have some bolts in there now sadly.
The traverse section to the summit is quite prolonged and complex because it doesn't follow the crest. Instead it goes across a series of ribs that make anticipation quite blind. I got tempted up to the crest a few times before I got the hang of it. The key on a lot of Tatry routes is to make sure you're on the worn route. Sounds obvious but, again not obvious. One of my fave tactics is to glance back whenever in doubt; from above the line is far more visible, pale in a sea of darker granite (apologies Slovak geologists if that's not quite accurate).
Reversing didn't seem so bad because of this benefit and we downclimbed the whole route back to the valley rather than abseiling. Under 6 hours but we were shifting pretty fast so allow 8hrs.
