Driving to the West Fjords, April 2013

A third drive to the West Fjords (Vestfirðir), but this time further North than I have ever been, as far as it is possible to drive anyways, the rest will be done by foot in the next 4 days. But for the first night there I was welcomed by a beautiful show of Northern Lights

Taking a break on the way there to enjoy the view

And later in the day another break to have dinner

Driving to the West Fjords

Almost there, but either I give up and drive back many kilometers via the lower road or deflate the tires and try to go through this closed mountain pass

The mighty Toyota made it and I park to enjoy tonight's show before a first night in the West Fjords
