Our team last summer…
We are putting together an album of pictures of volunteers who joined our team last summer. Was there really that much sunshine?

Our base camp at Langidalur
The Thórsmörk volunteer base camp was established at Langidalur by the Forest Service (Skógrækt ríkisins) in spring 2013. The camp is hosted by the Iceland Touring Association (Ferðafélag Íslands).
This season we have been busy developing the camp and improving facilities for the teams. We now have solar powered electricity for phone charging and 12v lighting, as well as hot water on tap (heated by gas). Work on the drying room has been ongoing all summer but it is now complete with metal roof and the new building includes an undercover kitchen and washing up area. Luxury for those joining us next season!
We created a Flickr album with pictures of the improvement work at the base camp completed last summer…
Langidalur potatoes
One of our last jobs this season was lifting the potatoes that were planted around the base camp at Langidalur. Not a huge crop, but enough to feed us for many days.
