Ahoy there.
Thought I´d throw in a few pics for your viewing pleasure
I´m participating in an ongoing project to log all the mountain tracks in Iceland, I drove 2 days this week loging track in a volcanic desert called "Sprengisandur" or Blastsands if I translate it, just so you get a feeling for the place it´s a very desolate place, but beautiful in it´s own right.
So basicly I´m getting paid to wheel
there was supposed to be a track there somewhere but we couldn´t find it.
the cruiser well labeled, since when doing this I have permission to basicly drive where I please if I´m trying to find a track
this is the lady from the National land survey. She logged the tracks as I drove them.
this one was very good to drive.
if you look closely you can see the sand blowing in the air.
There are stories from this place of cars that came back without paint and matted glass
Glacier in the background
probably an old (don´t know the english word) wire over the river to move people between the banks
ontop of Sóleyjarhöfði, not that that tells you anything
quite the view this is ÞJórsá, the longest river in Iceland (230km). it´s damed further down in several places and makes some 400MW.
Hofsjökull. Probably the most dangerous glacier in Iceland I´d say, you don´t drive over that thing unless you have a deathwish or just plain like falling down cravases ....
