MJ and I traveled 30 minutes down a gravel road to see a glacier lagoon in this northwest area of Iceland only to find out climate change had eliminated it. The glacier has retreated up the mountain, but the runoff from the melting glacier continues to feed this area, which makes for interesting photos.
Iceland Glacier Lake
During our 2021 Iceland trip, I went off by myself one night to go find this hidden glacier bay. I traveled a long distance down a path (calling it a road gives it too much credit…calling it a off road trail or path is probably more accurate).
Once I got to the end, I climbed a large hill to find the glacier lake and glacier coming down the mountain. From the front of the lake, I flew the drone over a mile to get to the start of the glacier and captured this photo looking straight down.
Icebergs in Iceland
Both of our trips to Iceland were amazing. I don’t know if there will be a third, but I’m hoping someday.
I took this photo near Diamond Beach, inside Jokulsarlon Iceberg Lagoon on the southeastern coast of the country. Wonderful spot.
Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon
I’m sure on Super Bowl Sunday my post should be football related. But I’ve been thinking a bunch about our 2021 Iceland trip. So, you’re getting this photo from the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon on the southeastern side of the country. Great spot!!
