Why do I have a photo of a helicoptor? Well during our drive to landmannaleid and the camping area (near the panorama photo), we were on the road going uphill around a curve and encountered a motorcycle accident. One of the people in the group apparently took a turn too fast or lost traction on the very rocky road, and wiped out in the middle of the road (a 4wd only area). He sounded like he would be ok, but had a badly broken leg. It was a very remote area. I took this picture 2 hours later. The accident made the news.

After seeing the Hjalparfoss waterfall in the rain, we saw blue sky to the north off in the highlands. So, we decided to head northeast to the opening in the clouds.

At the tip of the hill was this rock formation where the differnt layers had heaved together and up. This is actually about 3 feet/ 1 meter in height.
