  1. Isolation (t)

    Elsie loves living in the desolation of the desert. No neighbors, the glorious smell of sagebrush, and the Sun doesn't hit her place until about 10 AM.

  2. Do It Yourself (t)

    Reliance Overbury asked Junior to take care of an ant infestation while Reliance was in town gambling. Reliance said nothing about not using dynamite to remedy the situation.

  3. @1Sauerlaender That's Kerlingarfjöll! I studied those mountains for my PhD. They formed during explosive eruptions that punched through a thick ice sheet that covered all of Iceland at the time.

    Here's a blog post about it: all-geo.org/volcan01010/2012/1

  4. View into rhyolite mountains

    On the way out of the highlands, we repeatedly had great views of the complex mountain landscape of the highlands. Rhyolite valleys open up in front of mountain peaks and the sun does the rest to make the rhyolite glow.

    If you look closely, you can see the plumes of steam from the fumaroles at the top right. I’m sure I’ve been there before.

  5. Torfajökull & Mælifellssandur

    Torfajökull is the large volcano south of Landmannalaugar that is responsible for many rhyolite in the landscape around Landmannalaugar. It was once a subglacial volcano, meaning that it erupted under the ice. Here I look from the black Mælifellssandur up to Torfajökull, a few white stones in the foreground. Brightly lit by the sun, the rhyolite peak shines out at me.
