20 Days Urban Patio Sunrise in 6 Minutes - Time Lapse
Drove many times in a normal winter day out on the loop around Iceland. You are prepared for that stuff, dressed for it, carry a satellite phone.
What many km for the walk?
The total was like 9 miles (14 km)
Beautiful video! Very nicely "merged". Can you be a little more specific about when this was taken and what the temperatures were like?
Thank you. This was taking during our trip in late December. Temperatures in the park were more like in 50s during the day and in 30s during night. Us coming from Florida needed good sized jackets but probably okay for people who are used to cold weather.
We were there in September 2020 and it snowed! We opted not to drive the trail in the snow. Gotta go back.
Thank you for information. I am going to Iceland in March 2024
Glad you found this helpful
❤👍👍👍📸📸📸👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you
We love ❤️ Iceland 🇮🇸 Great video we miss it there my friend 👍👍 Thanks for the memories been to all those places 💯🔥🥶🫵
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it
Hope to make it here someday
Yeah its a pretty good one to keep in the list if you are in the Banff area.
Nice video, I enjoyed every second of it. Since you've been there, what's your advice ? Should I consider renting an adapted vehicule, or can a high-clearance AWD SUV do it ? What do you thing ? Thanks !
Thank you. We were driving an AWD SUV and it gave us chills at times when road was bad in few places. If you can rent something robust like Jeep Wrangler, that would be kind for peace of mind. We didn't know ahead of time or I would have done the same and rented a bit more capable one.
That's exactly the kind of vehicle I was considering. Thanks for your reply !@@leftitbehind7781
Great video! My wife and I drove this in early September 2023. Hopefully at some point I will have the time to edit and upload our video of the drive.
Thank you. Yeah video is a good memory refresher...
My time in Iceland was so great and this short video brings back great memories. Thanks for sharing. Take care.
Thank you
You are welcome.
Incredible lake view and tour. Thank you for sharing this wonderful video. Take care.
Thanks for checking this out
You are welcome.
I could stay on that lake all day.
9:26 thanks for the show
thank you
yeah nicely done
incredible views!
thank you and yeah drive was beautiful
Wow! I love travelling through the Canadian Rockies!
Thank you and yeah Canadian rockies are amazing.
Yeah and this video does justice to those Rockies
!!! My friend, Loved this video. Looking forward to see more. Awesome... Full watched.
Thanks so much
beautiful! is july the best time of the year to visit? Not too crowded?
Thank you. July is considered one of the busy period so there are lots of crowd. We ended up starting our day early so we could get into some of those lakes parking areas. On the flip side July is kind of on the nicer side with very nice weather and no closed roads.
Man I want to move out of Texas so bad.
Hehe I hear yea.. We are from Florida which is another flat land :)
Hehe yeah, this video is doing its part in that for sure 😀
I can't believe the algorithm actually suggested a good video for once. Loved the views.
Thank you and Glad you liked it!
Going for the first time in three months in mid-April 2024 and so excited! Thanks for sharing this. And thanks to all the Icelanders below who commented with driving and other tips.
Enjoy your trip. Glad you liked the video. Cheers !!!
love the music, this is a meditation, thank you
Glad you like it! Thank you
What a stunning content, what a magnificent work my friend.
Thank you!
I felt like travelling along with you sitting inside the car....amazing video...
Glad you liked it
Been there back in 1987 white out conditions forced to pull over!
yeah weather is little scary in Iceland
We are cocoa beachers here! Lol Heading out in December. We’re happy you mentioned being from Florida. It seems like a whole new world over there!
Yeah but as long as you are prepared you should be good to go. Sorry for the late reply. Was swamped up with office work.
i was laughting all the video , thx for sharing guys
Glad you enjoyed it
Drove thru similar scenario two weeks ago in NE Iceland. Solo. The most terrifying experience ever. I had to camp on the side of the road. Illegal camping be damned, let them arrest me I thought and I will be safe. Lesson learned: pay attention to weather warning. Thanks for the video. I can show my fam how it was like driving in Iceland blizzard.
Glad you enjoyed the video although it's not necessarily a good memory from past :)
Ooooooooh memories! I remember when I went there in late december 2012. I saw these carpets of snow flowing from one side of the street to the other. We tried Reykjavik to Akureyri but we were stopped by high levels of snow maybe 30min before the destination. We had to go back and we then tried the same trip but by airplane.
Ah that sound like a lot of driving and taking airplane again with storm impacting just 30 minutes before destination.
We have experienced the same situation. So we know how it feels. We were extremely happy when we got to the next village. Recovering from our event, everyone was acting like this was normal. It helped us get out of our 'shock'. We immediately booked a hotel and enjoyed it. Now we know the power of nature..
Yeah its crazy how powerful these natural scenarios are.
Exactly the same conditions my friend and I had - we were in a VW Polo and had no idea at one stage if we were driving on water or road haha @@leftitbehind7781
Looks like a usual snow storm in Wyoming.
yeah people living in up north USA its probably business as usual
This very same thing happened to us yesterday when driving back from the golden circle to Reykjavik. It was terrifying! You have managed to capture it really well in this vid
Credit goes to my wife for taking this video even in panic mode :)
Thanks for the video which I watched while listening to Max Richter's November at the same time. Great combination.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I was there in that situation only a few weeks ago on that same road I believe. The southern route (1) between Selfoss and Vik?! The crosswind driven, sporadic blizzard conditions were hurendous but kinda fun in a challengingly dangerous kind of way. Now, I put my headlights and fog lights on too. But when near stationary or about 10 kph, 'everyone' had their hazards on, tourists or not! In a white hire car such as mine with white headlights, surely blinking yellow hazard lights stand out more in the white out conditions anyway?! Better being as visible as possible than have one of those many eagerly driven, fully laiden impatient tourist coaches ram you up the backside, or front ways even eh?!! Oh it was such scarey fun and done all on my lonesome too!! Not supprisingly I didn't video it myself!, so watching it brings back such fond memories of my Icelandic trip : p. Thank you : )
yeah the weather changes are kind of so sudden. I am glad you made it out of it safe and enjoyed this video :)

💞
:)
Tip from a native: please refrain from turning on the hazard lights when driving in these conditions (you could see cars in the video driving with hazard lights on, probably tourists, guessing by the car brands). It helps no-one and you are not more visible. Instead turn on the fog lights and of course have the headlights on at all times (it's required by Icelandic traffic laws). Only use the hazard lights to indicate a stationary vehicle that might block traffic and/or that you need help. And if you are just stopping at the side of the road to take a picture, turn on the turn signal, not the hazard lights !! :)
Thank you and this makes sense.
Well noticed for my upcoming trip,... événement if I hope to not meet this kind of weather 😅
good tip, thanks
Thank you for your video. It's great.
Glad you liked it!
Man, what a crazy experience! We had something very similar ourselves, we went to Iceland on February and planned to spend one entire day driving from Grundarfjordur to Höfn. Everything was fine until exiting the tunnel before Saurbær, where we started having some strong winds, it looked a lot like 1:00. The weather was still sunny and fine though, but my girlfriend who was driving started to feel uneasy, so I decided to replace her. We passed Reykjavik and Selfoss without any problem (but pretty slowly though because of the conditions), and this is where they started to worsen. At one point, actually the bridge with the intersection for the Vestmann Islands, the road was blocked by a policeman who told us that because of the weather we couldn't go further and needed to go back. We managed to return to Hella, but damn, half of the drive (~10/15km) was exactly like at 1:50. No visibility at all for entire minutes, with a slippery road even while driving at 5km/h, and needless to say that leaving the road = ending stuck in the snow and storm. That being said, our initial booking at Höfn being replaced by another one at Loa's Nest in Hella ended up being one of the most amazing experiences of our trip! The owner is absolutely adorable, the rooms are perfect and he offers delicious pancakes and waffles for breakfast 😄If anyone has to stop there, I highly recommend this place! Another interesting fact: the storm lasted for an entire day and we only managed to leave Hella the day after, at 4PM! Everyone should be aware that travelling to Iceland during winter means that your plans can drastically change because of the weather.
"PANAMA RELOCATION TOUR'S! WITH JACKIE!👍👍"
Hmm not sure what that means
Really amazing 🤠
Yeah and scary ;)
What a serene country Iceland 🇮🇸💙 Let alone that Bobby Fischer, the best ever chess player, is resting there eternally 💚 Rest In Peace Bobby, the legend❤️
Iceland sure is something else :)
Ai fost singur in masina?
I wasn’t alone. My wife was with me
This reminds me when I drove over there the roads were getting closed at the same time 😮
Yeah weather changes very quickly there
Seen it worse, but understand those who have not experience this situation.
Yeah I can imagine it being normal for people live up North US or Canada. Even we were fine after facing couple of these but the first one was scary
No different then Wisconsin we have that all the time, looking forward to our upcoming trip there.
Enjoy your trip
Excellent capture
Thanks a lot 😊
You are the exact person i do NOT want to encounter while driving in winter. Stopping on the middle of the highway? are you nuts?!
That was panic reaction I guess. We were not sure what do when there was no visibility
The problem is there is no "side of the road". The road drops off at the shoulders most of the time.
You can't do more than that. I live in Iceland, before to have to stop the car because you are scared of the weather, make sure that there is not any alert.
@@jaycee330 doesnt matter you drive until there is a turn off. in which case you have to shut your lights OFF or else people will still run into you because they follow the taillights. Trust me ive driven through far worse
@@carlbutts6663 this sounds like horrible advice. In these conditions it’s better to stop as others will be going slow as well. If your hazard lights are on they can see you and react
Love how the clouds/fog look between the rhododendron. Very cool that you got to have this place to yourself. Have you hiked any of the AT in Georgia? Now following!
Thank you. we were kind of lucky with crowd because we hiked during the Dec 25th. We didn't do many hikes in Georgia as we are relatively newly moved to Florida area. Thank you for the sub though :)
@@leftitbehind7781 Anytime my friend! always looking to support others that have a passion for the outdoors. There is a ton of AT videos and places to hike on my channel that might interest you. Would love to hear your feedback! Have you hiked the Florida trail?
I have subscribed to your's and will check them out in the evening. I am interested in those equipment related videos (like sleeping bags etc.) and you seem to have few of those.
Great footage. Thanks for sharing the tour with us.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video 🤙
Thanks 👍
