    Default Jeepin’ in Iceland



    Just thought I’d let y’all know I’m not just visiting Iceland but Jeepin’ here!

    We rented a JKU for the entire trip and although it doesn’t compare to my TJ it’s an awesome family tour vehicle and it held its own driving the entire Ring road and up into the highlands for a few river fords. My brother in law rented a bad ass Defender but it cost him twice as much so I’m happy with the Jeep. Here’s a couple pics of the Jeep & Land Rover and a few of us hiking a mountain and climbing on a glacier. This place is rad!

    Congrats!

    Timberline? I'm not seeing trees - are there, generally, no or few trees there? Is there a general timberline - same approx elevation as home?

    Very few trees in Iceland, the above pics were taken in a volcanic area which ha very little vegetation at all. The last picture is a glacier, although it looks like black rock it’s actually pure ice with lots of rocks and mud in it.... very dangerous where we were but I’ve wanted to touch a glacier so Sawyer and I climbed into it and explored a bit
