  • After arriving at Torfi’s cabin in the middle of a dark and stormy night, the team begins to plan their route into Iceland’s interior via the F Roads with local legend, Torfi Johannsson, and his one-of-a-kind 1991 Toyota Hilux. Clay gives a rundown on this 4x4 ready truck with 42" tires, solid rear axle, and 80's series Landcruiser front suspension system.
    Clay makes a costly mistake while fleet manager Tanner has his work cut out for him. Deep, powerful river crossings, amazing Icelandic camps shared with local overlanders, wayward motorcycle travelers in need of help--it’s all in Episode 8 of The Nordic Series. #xoverland #iceland #overlanding #offroad

      Absolutely. Indeed very spectacular. I hope that someday I will get a chance to overland in Iceland but before that, own a Toyota Hilux 😀. Again, thank you very much. Watching from Kenya.

    Can I just compliment the maturity of the younger members. Cyrus thinking he hit his rear diff, having the maturity to not panic and jump straight onto the radio bit to wait and have the courage to still mention it when something can be done about it. On the other side. Compliment to the parents.

    Thank you for taking us to Iceland. We visited this amazing country in 2021 on the 3-week solo 4x4 trip and we just couldn't believe such places existed. Iceland sets the 4x4 expedition bar high, as your cinematography and storytelling.
    Looking forward to your next episodes from Iceland. I bet you visited even more wonderful places and with your cinematography skills, the future episodes will be the feast to our eyes.

    ExpeditionOverland# Dudes.....I realy love your Episodes about Icelannd. *BIG THUMBS UP*
    At 20:32 Hvanngil huts : I`m traveling to Iceland since 1990. And my last few trips always I made Solo Hikes into the Highlands. I reached this same hut in late Winter on my 2014 Solo Snowshoeing Triip along to Landmannalaugar and even further North. This Hut was half buried under a Monster Shitload of Snow. And being their totally allone was something super special. So I could 100% empathise with you about this trip and Landscapes..
    IT IS JUST A REAL JOY TO WATCH 🙂 MANY THX
