The tragic collapse of an ice cave here in Iceland cost a life and ruined many others.

Always great to help out with glaciology missions. Went out with a team of Belgian scientists the other day to retrieve the seismometers we had placed a week before.

Here's a shot from a recent ice climbing trip. First time climbers and progressed from zero to clean moves in vertical to slightly overhanging ice!

Today was my last ice cave tour of this season. I'm going to miss those places!
My program for April: WFR (Wilderness First Responder) recertification, a few glacier hikes and snowmobile tours, and a number of alpine treks to the highest peaks of Iceland.

Never forget to put down the camera and just admire the view with your own eyeballs.

It's nice to be back in the drone game. And a juicy sunrise above our farm this morning was a good opportunity to play with the Hyperlapse feature.
