Not very deep this one but fast currents! some banks of the rivers are covered in sticky black basalt sands - no problem for a V8! more rivers! more black sand amazingly - high on the Vatnajökull Glacier - I meet a CT Disco coming the other way on the narrow track across the lava fields! Glacier Lagoon Jökullsarlar a land of ice ... Langjökull Glacier and fire..... sometimes in close proximity! Ill sort some more out in the next days..... you can also see them live here..... http://www.pbase.com/dl4plm/iceland rgds Simon *G4OC Committee Member - Marketing Officer* D-GG-406 (BN55 WPR) Bolivia Stage 3-4 G4 D3 - Team Germany "Home of the Wopper!"

Would always like to go as the geology is amazing :) And the orange against the grey rock would be a fantastic contrast for pictures :D FFRR 2003 and 64 Series 2a http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/index.html http://www.poppy.org.uk/[font=Arial][/font][font=Arial][/font]
