First project of the season completed…

Our search for trails free from snow lead this season’s first volunteer team to Hjálpafoss in Þjorsadalur, where we have been working on Forest Service (Skógrækt ríkisins) trail projects in recent days. Our work included landscaping around the newly built trails at Hjálpafoss and general maintenance tasks there. This project was the first time that our teams have worked away from our home area around Þórsmörk, Goðaland and the Laugavegur, since our programme began three years ago.

We would like to thank the team for joining us, for braving the cold conditions, for their hard work… and for digging the car out of the snow so many times!

Now we are warmed up and ready for the summer!

Gleðilegt sumar! – Happy first day of summer!

We celebrated the first day of summer today with the season’s first day of trail work.

Following our recent visit to snowy Thórsmörk and Goðaland, the team has relocated to a work site at Hjalpafoss for a few days. We look forward to beginning preparations for our teams at the Langidalur base camp next week.

Gleðilega páska – Happy Easter!

A very Happy Easter to you all and best wishes for the summer ahead.
