In the Land of the Vikings

Last Weekend

Sunrise. Nothing but rocks and snow for the next 24 hours. The simplicity of the landscape was beautiful in its own way.


Saturday morning we were up at around 5am. This is our first glimpse of the small Askja glacier on our way to the much larger Vatnajokull glacier. It was very early, and a little chilly, but definitely worth the view.

  • Who are you doing all this glacier travel with? Why are you transporting radios?

  • Hey Tam,
    I lucked out and met some guys who are involved in the search and rescue club here in Akureyri and there was extra room in one of the jeeps for me. Great trip, but lonely in a way because of the landscape and because no one spoke english!
