Sunshine + nature + cake + playing with sledgehammers and rock bars again = a very good day indeed. It's been an enjoyable first day as a Volunteer Ranger at Hardcastle Crags.
And with that final river crossing, my 7-week adventure living and working in Iceland's Þórsmörk and Gođaland has finished. The sky was crying a bit and so was I. But it's not goodbye; I will return.
Slowly saying goodbye (for now) to one of my favorite places on Earth... 🇮🇸

Laugavegur Trek, Day 2... Having on our first day descended from the blustery highlands and camped beside the calm waters at Álftavatn, we then walked for hours across black sand and lava fields before reaching our next camp, Emstrur.

Yesterday, we completed our 3 day, 55 km hike of Iceland's phenomenal Laugavegur trail between Landmannalaugar and Þórsmörk. Words and photographs simply do not do it justice. In many places in the highlands, it's like a walk on the moon in rainbow technicolor, surrounded by ice and steam. Here are a few highlights from Day 1 of the journey.

It's difficult to believe but our first team of 2 week volunteers have now come and gone here in Þórsmörk and Gođaland. What a fantastically productive few weeks of trail work! Our Básar based team of 8 have done some cracking repairs, new builds, and more up on the popular Fimmvörđuháls trail. Now we and the other longer term volunteers are about to begin a week of exploring and rest, starting with us hitting the Laugavegur trail tomorrow!
