After a week in the Westfjords and being rather hopelessly grounded in the storm, the roads opened and we drove out, treated to a beautiful sunrise over the newly snowy fjords.

Blizzards and Avalanches
Roads closed all around us now by avalanches and winds up to 50m/sec (180km/h!) We walked two blocks in the scouring blizzard winds and had snow driven through our clothes and cut our eyes.
It’s creating beautiful effects and building drifts but we are very stuck in Suðavík as all roads out of the Westfjords are closed.
